The Hunter Valley, features over 100 vineyards give rise to the opportunity to partake of an award-winning vintage or two whilst sampling the best of regional delicacies. Singleton and Maitland are renowned for historic appeal whilst Lake St. Clair, national parks, Aboriginal sites and fertile farms inspire exploration of a different kind. Nestled in the protective embrace of the Watagan Mountains is also the saltwater expanse of Lake Macquarie, affording a number of aquatic activities to suit any taste. Secluded sandy beaches on which to languish, the Hunter River in which to drop a line, coastal areas that invite surfing, swimming and scuba diving, are all there for the asking. Barrington Tops, a vast 80,000 ha World Heritage-listed reserve is abundant in spectacular rainforest and native fauna while the towns of Gloucester and Dungog exude country charm reminiscent of days of old. On the other side of the scale is Newcastle, a burgeoning metropolis attesting to its colourful past with historic buildings co-existing amid modern development fashioned around a busy working harbour and numerous beautiful beaches. For a taste of a flourishing café culture and a lively and vibrant nightlife of international acclaim, Newcastle is a city for all seasons. |
