MILD, sunny days and star-filled evenings make spring the perfect time to explore the beautiful Loddon Valley. With an abundance of special events there is so much to enjoy.
Fishing enthusiasts will look forward to the Boort Annual Fishing Competition and Family Weekend on October 16-17. Held on the shores of Little Lake Boort you will find a great environment, a friendly atmosphere and lots of prizes.
Art lovers will enjoy visiting the Loddon Valley on the weekend of October 23-24, with the Loddon Valley Arts Trail launching this year. Visit 11 venues and see works of more than 25 artists across the region.
Star-gazers and photographers in particular will enjoy the spectacular vistas and open landscapes of the region. Stunning sunsets and sunrises flank the ‘Dark Sky Place’ – skies with very little light pollution and a landscape offering stars visible from the horizon.
Those simply seeking the beauty of nature will find it in spades. Enjoy camping or a picnic amidst 460-million-year-old granite outcrops that offer 360-degree views. Hike or cycle along bushland trails, and through the picturesque historic villages, appreciating the magic of this beautiful region during a wonderful time of year.
