Glen Roy Conservation Park is tucked away behind vineyards and pine forest. This beautiful patch of scrub is a great spot to wander and absorb Mother Nature.

Green Rise Reserve is a great spot to take a walk with space for the kids and dogs to run. Follow your nose south past IGA and the hospital.

Coonawarra surrounds Penola, and 25 cellar doors are all within 15km on the road north of the Royal Oak

Long Beach – Pack an esky and head for Long Beach.  Set up camp for the day – with 11km of driveable beach, drive a bit further and you’ll have all the space you could want.

Little Dip The coastline between Robe and Beachport is among the most pristine, stunning coastline imaginable. Pack an esky, let your tyres down and check out the 4WD track.

Lower Glenelg National Park is one of the unknown beauties of this region. Scrub reaches down to the banks of the Glenelg River. The campsites on this river are a great spot to escape mobile phone coverage and chill.
