Shiraz Trail eTukTuk Adventure – Ride, Sip & Picnic in Paradise!
Your journey begins at Oxenberry Farm, right on the iconic Shiraz Trail. Hop aboard your eco-friendly eTukTuk and head off along the Flat to Vale Trail, winding past picturesque vineyards and towering gum trees. Keep an eye out for blue wrens darting through the undergrowth, or koalas snoozing up in the branches of the trees.
For those looking to sip along the way, on weekends the delightful Foggo Wines cellar door beckons with beautiful lawns beneath shady gums, wines, spirits and cocktails as well as cheese and meat platters. On Saturday afternoons, a wine tasting at Nick Haselgrove Wines (at the end of the Flat to Vale Trail) is also an option. For those wanting to venture further afield, take a left at the end of the Flat to Vale Trail, and follow Blewitt Springs Road around to Beresford Tasting Pavilion or Woodstock Wines, both of which have plenty of food, wine and more to enjoy in beautiful settings.
The day is yours to customise, but we are always happy to give suggestions!
