Pyramid HillThis small country town with a population of only 500 is bordered by Loddon River and offers recreational walking, scenic views, a variety of flora and fauna, local wine, cycling and delicious local produce.
Spend a day visiting the speciality shops and view the “Hill” from the township and enjoy a scrumptious lunch at the Victoria Hotel.
If you’re feeling a little adventurous, take the 3km track out of town to the base of the Pyramid Hills. Enjoy walking around the new 2km attractive pathway which winds around the base of Pyramid Hill.
Wildflowers abound in the spring and the Hill Reserve is a popular picnic spot with tables and barbeque facilities.
For those keen on golf, make sure you pack your clubs as the picturesque 18-hole golf course surrounding the hill is open to members and visitors from April to September.
