ART, WINE AND THE WORKING DOG
This morning we explore the surrounding area by visiting Fish Creek.

MILAWA, EUROBIN AND BEECHWORTH
Our touring today takes us to Beechworth where we will be joined on the coach by our local guide.

Our final stop for the day is the Milawa Cheese Company, located in the historic Murray Goulburn Butter Factory. We’ll indulge in a tasting, and try our hand at cheese making before making our way back to the hotel in time to relax a little before dinner.

WANGARATTA TO SWAN HILL
Today we drive to Echuca, once Australia’s largest inland port in the late 1800’s and is home to Australia’s largest fleet of authentic paddle steamers. Lunch today is on the river aboard the Pride of the Murray Paddlesteamer. The boat has quite a history and is one of the many that were originally built in Echuca but one of the few still operating from her home port. Back on dry land, we’ll spend some time looking through the Port of Echuca Discovery Centre. We’ll now follow the mighty Murray River to Swan Hill for our overnight stay. We check in to the motel and meet up for an early dinner. This evening, we make our way to the Pioneer Settlement for the Heartbeat of the Murray sound and laser show. This wonderful new sound and light show is the first of its kind and utilizes water, light, laser, sound and special effects to tell the fascinating story of the Murray – from 30 million years ago to today. The set features 20 water fountains, each of which can spray water up to 40 metres high and is fitted with individually coloured LED light. The show will face the Little Murray River making it the first show of its kind to use a natural river environment and setting as the background. We’ll head back to the motel after an entertaining night out.

SWAN HILL TO HORSHAM - THE SILO ART TRAIL
Today we’re off to investigate the unique Silo Art Trail, astonishing and colossal works of art using wheat silo’s as a canvas. First stop is Lake Tyrrell just 80 kilometres from Swan Hill. It’s a must for any nature enthusiast or budding photographer. The lake is dry most of the year, and evaporation leaves a salt crust which is commercially extracted. At times it may be covered by shallow water and the unique salty formation on the lake bed has also become a mecca for international visitors looking to capture that once in a lifetime photo opportunity, over the shallow lake's reflective surface. At nearby Sea Lake the local silo has been adorned with an artwork by Drapl and The Zookeeper. The mural depicts a young girl swinging from the branch of a Mallee Eucalyptus, looking out over the reflective surface of the lake. A Wedge-tailed eagle flies overhead, and a trio of emus cluster nearby. We continue our way to Lacelles, where the world renowned artist Rone’s mural depicts the faces of long term local couple, Geoff and Marrilyn Horman, whose families have lived and farmed in the area for four generations. At Patchewollock Fintan Magee’s giant mural depicts local sheep and grain farmer, Nick ‘Noodle’ Hulland, chosen for his ‘classic farmer looks’ and his strong connection to the farming community. After lunch we take a look at the large and colourful wall mural in the centre of Hopetoun depicting aspects of local history and the memorial fountain erected in 1929. Continuing south we arrive in Brim to look at the magnificent work of Guido van Helten. He is not depicting specific personalities but an impression of Brim and its people after spending weeks touring Wimmera farms and getting to know the locals. At Sheep Hills, Melbourne street artist Matt Adnate used 300 litres of house paint and 100 spray cans on the project! This work stands at 30 metres high and 40 metres wide, a massive undertaking, inspired by time spent with the Barengi Gadjin Land Council and other indigenous people. It’s been a grand day looking at the longest open air art gallery in Australia and if time permits, we’ll make a stop in Rupanyaup where the work of Russian mural artist Julia Volchkova quietly honours the integral role that sport and community play in rural Australia. We make our way to Horsham, in time for a well-earned pick-me-up before dinner!
