There’s plenty of family-friendly things to do in the Hunter, Pokolbin is a treasure trove of unique experiences in the Hunter Valley that the whole family can enjoy!
Start off strong with something everyone will love exciting and experiences like an unforgettable family horse ride through the bush and farmyard animal encounters at Hunter Valley Horses.
Then keep the hands-on active fun going with blood pumping activities at Hunter Adventure Centre, with thrilling archery, axe throwing, laser clay shooting & segway tours.
After a day of adventure, cooking is the last thing you’ll want to do, dinner plans are solved at 4 Pines at the Farm’s Bistro.
Kick off your second day in the Hunter Valley with a sense of adventure and take the scenic route to enjoy the 10kms of bike trails in Pokolbin at your own pace. Hire a bike from Grapemobile, or electric bikes from Sutton Estate, tiring the kids out is just a bonus!
See all the exciting animals at the Hunter Valley Wildlife Park, hand-feed kangaroos, and even book an encounter to get up close.
Finally, after all that outdoor excitement, sink into a relaxing afternoon overlooking the vines and savouring Hunter Valley wine at kid-friendly cellar doors like Glandore Estate Wines, De Iuliis Wines & McCaffrey’s Estate.
For your final day in Pokolbin, check out of your accommodation then spend the morning admiring nature and wandering through Australia’s largest botanical display garden at Hunter Valley Gardens until it’s time to make your way back home.
