Totally agree, it sure is serene!

How's that for serenity? 🍃

📍 Just 10 minutes from Kaniva, the 2.6km Billyho Bushwalk is a local favourite, a peaceful circuit that’s perfect for nature lovers and weekend wanderers alike.

Lucky for West Wimmera, the impressive Border Inn is situated here in our patch!

The epitome of a ripper country pub, friendly atmosphere, personal service and absolutely fabulous food 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

You might not be local, but you'll feel local ❤️

Believe us when we say wow does this pub have a history!! Old as, and yet only a couple of years ago a car crashed into it...

Yet another reason to visit West Wimmera! See you soon visitwestwimmera.vic.gov.au
