Explorers Way tourist brochure launched at Tahbilk Winery

A new driving trail tourist brochure was launched at a special event at Tahbilk Winery recently.

The Explorer’s Way brochure was launched over a luncheon with guest speakers Greg Ecclestone and Ken McIness.

The two historical experts describe the journeys of Hume and Hovell in 1824 and Major Mitchell in 1836 through Strathbogie Shire.

Strathbogie Shire Councillor Reg Dickinson officially launched the tourist drive brochure – a project of Nagambie Historical Society in collaboration with the Strathbogie Shire Council.

“The drive is designed to encompass most of the Shire, in the steps of the explorers,” Mayor Cr Laura Binks said.

“It was fantastic to see so many people in attendance at this event.

“We hope many modern-day explorers enjoy the tourist drive which showcases so many beautiful parts of our Shire.”

This event was held as part of Australian Heritage Festival 2023, promoted by the National Trust.
