With its outstanding position on the lake and stunning architecture, Nagambie Brewery & Distillery has great bones for an excellent day out. Add in head brewer Jamie Chesher’s unpretentious brews and a menu of pizzas, burgers and share plates, and you’ve got all the ingredients for a delicious day trip. + nagambiebrewery.com.au
It’s long been the place to soak away all your troubles, but now Peninsula Hot Springs has added luxurious couples’ glamping. Immerse yourself in the springs, have a massage then head back to your accommodation to fall into slumber. There’s also access to night-time bathing, morning yoga and the hilltop pool to watch the sun rise. + peninsulahotsprings.com
Stretch your legs at Gippsland’s TarraBulga National Park. There’s a chance to follow a number of walking trails, but we like the Forest Track, which forms a loop from the visitor centre. Pass gullies of tree ferns and admire the cool rainforest, all while listening to the sound of the birds around you. Leave 90 minutes to cover the fourkilometre walk. + parks.vic.gov.au
