Earthly Brewing Co

There’s a strong wine theme in Ballandean (10 minutes' drive), surrounded by wineries and vineyards such as the Ballandean Estate Wines (15 minutes) – here, head through the cellar door and sort yourself out with a vineyard picnic or a tasting paddle. Tummy tenderly cared for, next up might be some action in the form of a round of golf at Tenterfield Golf Club (30 minutes). A little more energy in your stores? Then, rock climbing in Girraween National Park (from 15 minutes) will ramp things up nicely. Hike to see the tors and granite boulders if you prefer… Walks in Sundown National Park (an hour and 10 minutes) are equally gorgeous, except the scenery here includes gorges, mining remains and woodlands, with kayaking, four-wheel driving and wild swimming being some of the top ways to unwind. Just make sure you save getting lost for The Granite Belt Maze (30 minutes), a family-friendly attraction with mazes, miniature golf and other games. For some bitesized history and learning along the way, you’ll also want to pay a visit to the Tenterfield Railway Museum (30 minutes) or the Stanthorpe Visitor Information Centre (30 minutes).
