Boyanup

Description:

Boyanup brings back memories of a bygone era, giving you a taste of fresh seasonal fruits and flavours direct from the farm. Soak up its country charm with a stroll through the markets and art and craft galleries, or a scenic drive through rolling hills and orchards. From Bunbury, Boyanup is an easy 30 minute drive. The journey from Perth takes two hours, travelling south on the Forrest Highway, or you can take your time and savour the flavours and scenery of the Harvest Highway. Starting in Armadale, the trail follows the South West Highway through some of the top producing country towns in the Perth and South West regions. Make it a weekend escape to coincide with the fourth Sunday of the month and you'll also be treated to a feast of farm-fresh produce at the Boyanup and Districts Farmers Market. Enjoy your pick of the local harvest with a picnic beside the Preston River, followed by a stroll along the riverbank to discover its abundant flora and fauna. If you plan to stay a while, or make Boyanup your overnight stop along the Harvest Highway heading south, enjoy some country hospitality at a farmstay, bed and breakfast or resort-style accommodation.
