Experience Overview:
Winery And Brewery Hiking Tour Of Yarra ValleyJoin our small group (max 8 guests) for an adventure to the Dandenong Ranges and Victoria’s famous Yarra Valley, just a short 1-hour drive from Melbourne.
We embark on an easy to moderate 6.6km hike in the Eastern Sherbrooke Forest through towering Mountain Ash trees and wetland ferns. Keep your eyes open for lyrebirds, wombats, wallabies, and echidnas that call the forest home.
Next up, we pull into one of Yarra Valley’s favourite wineries, Yarrawood Estate, for lunch. There's plenty of time for wine tasting too if you choose. After lunch, we skip over the road to visit craft beer brewery Matilda Bay, before jumping back in the van to visit the lads at Payten & Jones for more good wine and great tunes.
We top the day off with a visit to Four Pillars, a small craft distillery (that's been named the world's leading gin producer two years in a row), before hitting the road and returning to Melbourne.

Organized by
Hike & Seek
We are James & Mette, nature lovers, hikers and seekers.
While hiking through Victoria’s Sealers Cove in Wilson Promontory we came up with the idea of Hike & Seek as a way of combining our love of nature, nutrition, travel and good times with fellow travellers and locals alike.
So we set out on a mission to find the most beautiful and epic hiking destinations all within a short drive from Melbourne. We thought what better way to see all that Victoria has to offer than in a VW Kombi van, the original adventurer. We named her Olivia and restored her for maximum comfort on the road. Since our humble beginnings we have introduced a few newer model VW to the fleet, Biggie & Panda. Both are built for adventure and share the same free-spirited soul of what we set out to offer through Hike & Seek.
Our intimate, small group hiking tours have been designed for other like-minded folk who share the same enthusiasm, curiosity and sense of respect for nature and the outdoors that we have.
