Horsham

Roam the banks of the Wimmera River at Horsham and acquaint yourself with the striking surrounds immortalised by Arthur Boyd and Sidney Nolan and still providing inspiration to a dynamic arts community.

See how artists past and present view the Wimmera through the renowned collection of art and photography at the Horsham Regional Art Gallery, housed in a 1930s art deco building. Dine out on the lentils and chick peas, wheat and grains grown on the Wimmera plains in Horsham's restaurants, along with local wines, oils, honey, herbs, poultry and vegetables.

Visit Horsham's surrounding natural attractions, such as Mt Arapiles-Tooan State Park, Little Desert National Park and the Northern Grampians. Watch as rock climbers test their skills on the daunting Mt Arapiles and capture the sunsets that can be seen on the vast flat plains of the Wimmera and the Northern Grampians.

Relax in the William Guilfoyle-designed Horsham Botanic Gardens alongside the Wimmera River. Walk along the river, or alternatively try rowing, kayaking and canoeing. Tee off on one of the finest golf courses outside metropolitan Melbourne.
