Perth’s best kept secret
An Unmissable Day Out
Our earth is rich, and the sun is warm, giving us the perfect conditions to grow top notch produce. But the Swan Valley is so much more than its landscape. There’s plenty to see and do; from sipping local beverages at our cellar doors, taking an adventure through the Aboriginal art spots, indulging in the region’s most delicious eats, and visiting the wild side of plenty of wildlife experiences. There’s fun for the whole family in the valley.
