Love Wine & Food? Then Go for Broke!

This Hunter Valley 'road less travelled' is home to a treasure trove of wineries, galleries, food offerings and experiences, and is most worthy of your next visit.

Considered the more tranquil side of the Hunter Valley, Broke Fordwich is an appealing destination for those looking for the ideal country escape from the city. Be it a side trip from Pokolbin or a stay in Broke in its own right, there is plenty to do and see.

With a wide selection of unique wineries and world-class wines, wellness retreats, art galleries and sculpture walks, great coffee, degustation dining, gin distilleries, olive groves, farm produce, boutique accommodation, local markets and an annual Italian Festival and everything in between, there really is so much to love and experience in the Broke Fordwich wine region.

Set in a picturesque corner of the Hunter Valley, surrounded by the spectacular Brokenback Mountain Range, and only a 10-minute drive from Pokolbin, the Broke Fordwich Wine Trail paves the way for visitors to experience many of the region's great offerings - wine intertwined with great produce, art, antiques, food and stays. Take in any number of the great cellar doors which offer tastings, some seven days a week, others every weekend.

Local produce is aplenty, with many wineries offering food accompaniments with their exclusive tasting experiences or at on-site restaurants and cafes. Take a moment to unwind and escape reality with a choice of exquisite accommodation – from luxurious large group accommodation to tiny houses with a view of the vineyards. Whatever the occasion, there's something for everyone.

The region's natural beauty, fine Hunter wines, eateries and restaurants, local farm produce, great places to stay, modern country charm and cultural significance, make Broke Fordwich well worth a visit and provide an excellent reason to return.
