We left Coonabarabran on Thursday morning heading to Mudgee. It was interesting going home a different way, going on roads I had never travelled on before and visiting towns that were just names on a map. We headed through Binnaway and then onto Coolah. The countryside was green and lovely.
We stopped off to do "The Drip" walk, it was just lovely, green and lush, we walked along the track with the cliffs on one side and the Goulburn River on the other side. At various points you could hear the water dripping off the side of the cliff- thus the name- The Drip.
Very picturesque and one of the nicest short walks I have done. Then it was on to Mudgee where we are staying the night.
First stop was the Mudgee Honey Haven for lunch and some shopping. Everything honey you could think of. The honey ice-cream was just delicious. Lots of different types of honey to taste.
Then it was the High Valley Cheese Co where we enjoyed a cheese tasting. We tried 5 different feta cheeses and other cheeses they hand make, it was hard to decide what to buy!
We settled into our motel and went for a self guided tour of the beautiful buildings around Mudgee.
This is the Post and Telegraph Office built in the 1860's.
This was an old bank.
The Town Hall, now the library.
Another old bank now a solicitors office
One of Mudgee's many churches.
Mudgee really is a very pretty town.
