What is there to do in Kangaroo Valley?

There is so much to do in scenic Kangaroo Valley, including bush walking or enjoying the wonderful galleries and shops. Other favourite activities are visiting the many antique and craft shops and vineyards in the region.

Horse riding, tennis and Kangaroo Valley Golf and Country Resort are available nearby. The canoe trips on the Kangaroo River are extremely popular with all ages and mountain bikes can also be hired or fishing trips organised.

The Pioneer Farm Museum is well worth a visit. The Berry markets are on the first Saturday of the month and are always worth visiting also.

Or you can simply let the surroundings relax you, take in the fresh air, go slow and do very little. The magic views of the surrounding mountains and valleys seem to encourage you to go slow. It is a very healing place.
