SUMMER is upon us and, while everyone is reminded to stay alert over the fire season, the Yarra Ranges has plenty to offer.
The views alone are a perfect reason to visit the Yarra Valley as the sun rises – the reflection off the grape vines is something you must see for yourself.
Enjoy a glass of vino, take in the views and induldge in the wonderful local produce this wonderful area has to offer.
This area isn’t all about wines, though. There are many family friendly activities to do, too.
Fancy a spot of antique shopping? There are so many fantastic antique stores and op shops in the area, make sure you visit Yarra Glen, Healesville and Tecoma.
And what about the fantastic playgrounds these towns have to offer?
Yarra Glen’s playground is amazing and so is the one in Montrose, and don’t forget the Seville Water Park for hours on hours of fun.
With so much to do, you could spend a week or two in the Yarra Ranges and still not get to do it all.
It’s a wonderful area – get out there and enjoy it.
I sure plan to this summer.
