The Hunter Region is well known for historical towns, wine regions and attractive rural landscapes. This region offers a diverse range of landscapes from the mountainous wilderness of the Barrington Tops National Park to the sub-tropical coastal regions of Newcastle and Lake Macquarie.
Weekend escapes and winery tours are just two of the region’s tourist attractions. There are over 100 wineries in this area and its proximity to Sydney makes it popular with local tourists.
