This is a really great walk to do, start at Merricks General Wine Store and finish up in Red Hill for a glass of vino at Cellar and Pantry (or swap it around). Ideally you need someone to pick you up at one end, but if you love to walk a round trip takes about 3-4 hours.

Ok, this place has been around since we were kids and these days it’s super touristy. But, if the weather is nice and you want to pick some strawberries, this can be a cute outing.

Sooo lovely and special! If you want to avoid crowds, go later at night or early in the morning. Especially in winter when the warm baths are extra delicious!
