Vinetrekker Food & Wine Tour Yarra Valley Melbourne Victoria
We spent a day exploring the Mornington Peninsula Vineyards and with over 50 in the region you have a lot of variety to choose from.
This region is also well known for fresh produce and the Main Ridge Dairy is an excellent place to visit to experience this. It is a true farmhouse dairy and they will give you tastings of their goats cheese that is made right there.
We also joined Vinetreeker Food & Wine Tours for a tour of the Yarra Valley. They have a few different tours to choose from and we joined their food, wine and daytour.
This tour started at the Healesville Wildlife Sanctuary where we spent a couple of hours watching kangaroos, koalas and wombats. This put a real unique edge to the winery tour. You don't have to do the wildlife sanctuary though and can just do a full day wine tour if wine is more your interest.
The tour took us around a few of the Yarra Valleys best wineries and one of the highlights of the day is the superb lunch that is included at one of the top vineyards. It was also raining the day that we went which actually really added to the whole atmosphere as we drove around and went in to the cosy vineyards.

Main Ridge HT
HD please?! Super proud of Molly at our 3rd horse trials today, second after dressage with a score of 19.0 (86.7%), and managed to hold on with 4 time faults and 4 show jumping faults for second. 2 points off a win! Weird to think that four months ago we came last at our first HT, and two competitions later, we were close to winning! We are getting there :)

Mornington Peninsula
The Mornington Peninsula, on the eastern side of Port Phillip Bay, feels like an island with a vast ocean to the south and bays and sheltered beaches on either side. Fertile hills roll down to pretty beaches or harbours and serene bay views abound.
Some of Australia's best sandy beaches can be found here and every kind of water activity is available, from sailing and surfing to fishing and dolphin swims. There are also majestic coastal walks past dunes, beaches, cliffs and lighthouses. On the bay side of the peninsula, visit stylish Sorrento with its fine 19th century buildings and excellent eateries, boutiques and galleries. Stop off at Mornington and enjoy its cosmopolitan sidewalk cafes and picturesque harbour. On the other side of the peninsula visit the charming fishing hamlet of Flinders and take a trip to nearby Cape Schanck where you can enjoy superb views of Bass Strait.
Alternatively head inland and explore the abundance of vineyards and orchards tucked away among the rolling hills of Red Hill and Main Ridge. Wineries and restaurants overlook the blue waters of Port Phillip Bay to the west and Western Port Bay to the east and the peninsula's orchards sell fresh produce direct from the farmgate.
For anybody who has ever teed up, the Mornington Peninsula is golfing heaven. Take on the daunting Moonah Links, specifically designed for the prestigious Australian Open, or head to The Dunes, a Scottish-style links layout rated as one of the top 15 courses in Australia.

Cape Schank Walking Trails Mornington Peninsula Victoria
Cape Schanck is a large national park with numerous walks around it spectacular cliffs and down to the bay and beaches.
There are a few main walks around Cape Schanck that really capture the essence of what this place is all about.
We did the Cape Walk down the wooden boardwalk to Devils Desk and Pulpit Rock. The beauty of these leaves you feeling like you have just walked on to the set of a Hollywood movie with its perfectly unspoilt magnificence.
There is another spectacular walk to Bushrangers Bay where you could be lucky enough to be the only people there. Take a picnic and stay and enjoy for a few hours because it is a long walk there and back.
Or on a hot day you can walk down the boardwalk to the pristine rock pools where the water is crystal clear and you feel like the first person to have ever been here.
Apart from the crashing waves, this place surrounds you with tranquility and the ultimate unspoilt beauty of nature. There are not many places left today that offer this kind of breathtaking beauty that leaves you speechless in awe of the colours and scenery surrounding you.
