Wet & #WildAtHeart 🌊🚣
After the winter rains, the Murray River is in full flow. There’s no better way to get amongst it than on a fast water rafting adventure with @dwellingup_adventures.
Let the current carry you through bubbling rapids, swift channels, and glassy pools. With all the gear and logistics sorted, you’re free to chase the thrills and embrace the spills.

From orchard to glass in the Murray Region. 🍊
@carahollyorchard has teamed up with @exchangepinjarra to create something special - a limited-edition Cara Cara Orange Gin, crafted from sun-ripened fruit grown here in #Dwellingup. 💚
Bright, smooth and full of flavour, it’s the taste of autumn bottled. Find it exclusively at Exchange Hotel in @visitpinjarra - but only while stocks last. 🍸
