HUNTER VALLEY HIGHLIGHTS BUS TRIP! Hike, Wine and Chocolate Adventure! Moderate - 4.5KM

🍷 HUNTER VALLEY ESCAPE: VINES, VIEWS & VODKA VIBES 🍇

Forget the "sophisticated urban trek"—we’re trading the concrete jungle for lush vineyards, epic summit views, artisan spirits, and chocolate treats. Join the crew for an unforgettable day trip that kicks off in the morning and winds down just in time for dinner. This special day out is built on the three pillars of 7 Days of FUN greatness: Scenery, Sips, and the Best Vibes in NSW.

⚠️ Please note: While the transport, winery tasting, distillery flight, and guiding are organized, lunch at Harrigans and any extra purchases are paid separately.

🗺️ THE GAME PLAN: VINES & PEAKS

We aren't just driving up; we’re kicking things off with panoramic mountain views, working up an appetite on the trails, and indulging in some of the best tastings the Hunter Valley has to offer.

• The Launchpad: We meet at Strathfield Station. This is the spot to gather the crew, load up the transport, and get the energy up before we hit the road north.

• The Mountain Trek: Our first stop is Mt Sugarloaf for a gorgeous 4.5km hike featuring sweeping, uninterrupted views of the region.

• The Winery Tasting: Next up, we head to a local vineyard for a guided tasting of 6 to 7 different wines to ease us into the afternoon.

• The Pub Lunch: We’ll stop for a well-deserved lunch at Harrigans, a legendary local pub known for its incredible atmosphere and hearty food.

• The Distillery Experience: We’ll swing by Small Mouth Distillery to sample 8 different spirits, choosing from a massive lineup of 28 unique options.

• The Sweet Grand Finale: We’ll wrap up the day at the Hunter Valley Chocolate Company to satisfy our sweet tooth before cruising back to Sydney.
