The cultural-meets-thrill seeking tourism venture from the Worimi Local Aboriginal Land Council won gold in 2013 and 2014 as well as silver in 2015.

Last week it was gold again in the Qantas Award for Excellence in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Tourism. The Hunter was well represented with awards for Château Élan at The Vintage, Beyond Ballooning, and Margan Wines & Restaurant.

“Our region continues to prove it has so much on offer for domestic and international visitors and this was again highlighted at this year’s NSW Tourism Awards,” Parliamentary Secretary for the Hunter, Scot MacDonald, said.
