Its that perfect time of year to head up the spectacular Great Alpine Road from Bruthen to Omeo, visiting hidden artists’ studios, country pubs filled with artwork, pop-up galleries and other treasure troves along the way.

The Great Alpine Arts Trail features galleries, open studios, a pop-up exhibition space, art in pubs, and a makers market in a vintage shop. Match this with tastings of local gourmet food and wine along the way and you have the perfect weekend escape.
