Hunter Region
The Hunter region is one of the few regions in NSW where you can move between coast, city and wine country within a single trip.
Hunter Region
The Hunter region sits about two hours north of Sydney and covers a surprisingly broad sweep of landscapes: the surf beaches and wildlife of Port Stephens on the coast, the city energy and heritage of Newcastle, and the rolling vineyards of the Hunter Valley inland.
The Hunter is well suited to weekend escapes from Sydney and longer stays alike, and works for most travel styles: couples after good food and wine, families who want beach and wildlife, and anyone who wants something more varied than a single-destination trip.
