Here`s what a perfect winter day in Beechworth looks like โ
Kick things off with a coffee and toastie from @tiny.beechworth then take a gentle stroll around Lake Sambell. Feeling brave? Book a session at @stillwatersaunas for some well-earned rest.
When hunger strikes, head to the @stanleypub_vic for cosy vibes and great food. Spend the afternoon browsing the unique shops on Ford and Camp Streets, or duck into the Burke Museum and @beechworthhistoricprecinct to explore the fascinating natural history collection.
As the sun sets, head to Mayday Hills for a spine-tingling ghost tour at @asylumghosttours
Fresh air, indulgence and a little adventure. Perfect!
Winter is one of the best times to visit Woolshed Falls, with recent rain bringing the granite cascades to life.
Just a short drive from Beechworth, this iconic spot is putting on a spectacular show, with water rushing through the landscape and scenic lookout spots offering plenty of photo opportunities.
If you`re heading out to explore, take care around wet rocks and creek crossings. Wear sturdy shoes, stick to marked tracks and keep a safe distance from the water`s edge, as conditions can be slippery after rain.
Australian folk artist @leahseniormusic brings her acclaimed Pt. Roadknight album tour to Beechworth this August for an evening at Old Stone Hall.

The new album draws inspiration from the natural beauty of Victoriaโs surf coast, weaving heartfelt reflections on place, connection and modern life into a captivating live performance.
