Introduction

The Swan Valley is Western Australia's oldest wine region, up the Swan River about half an hour from Perth, the hinterland garden for Perth's nearby food and wine. In this sunny river valley sit dozens of wineries, craft breweries, coffee roasters, and chocolate and honey workshops, where you can taste wine, craft beer and handmade food along the way. Beyond driving between cellar doors, you can cruise up the Swan River from Perth, tasting wine on board and arriving at the valley. Pastoral scenery, local produce and a relaxed tasting mood make the Swan Valley a popular half-day to full-day eat and drink trip near Perth.
