Nannup
Surrounded by Karri forests and a magic mix of farming and viticulture with the Blackwood River flowing through it, the ‘garden village’ of NANNUP is like the hub of a wheel on the map of the South West. This charming town with its picturesque timber heritage is within easy reach of Balingup, Bridgetown, Boyup Brook, Manjimup, Pemberton, Busselton and Margaret River. It has become an essential destination for any traveller bent on experiencing the region to the full.
For connoisseurs, four wineries, local produce (including award winning cheeses) and prize-winning gourmet restaurants beckon; craft and antiques enthusiasts will love the art/craft store, furniture gallery and antique shop.
Fancy some mild exercise? – try some bushwalking or wildflower rambles in the surrounding forests or visit the unique mazes with mythical themes. Putt-putt anyone? What about bowls or golf? Something a little more active? – exquisite Barrabup Pool in the forest is a wonderful picnic and swimming destination; take your picnic and don’t forget to include the local food and wine; for the water sport enthusiasts two canoeing businesses operate on the Blackwood River. For the somewhat more adventurous there are the Bibbulmun walk trail and the Munda Biddi cycling track.
Just want to relax in tranquil surroundings? Every sort of accommodation is available from spa chalets to backpackers, each one in scenic surroundings. Give yourself a treat in a luxurious retreat.
Nannup is the perfect location from which to explore each captivating nook and cranny in the South-West. Visit soon!
