Make a Day of Your Gippsland Drive
Thorpdale sits among the rolling hills and rich agricultural landscapes of West Gippsland and is an easy country escape from many of Gippsland's regional centres and Melbourne.
-
From Warragul: approximately 25–30 minutes
-
From Traralgon: approximately 30–35 minutes
-
From Melbourne CBD: approximately 1 hour 40 minutes to 2 hours
​
The journey itself is part of the experience, with country roads, open farmland and charming regional towns along the way.
​​​
Make the Travellers Rest Hotel your lunch destination, or include a visit to our onsite Travellers Distillery as part of your outing. It's an opportunity to discover a little-known corner of Gippsland, enjoy a proper country pub and take the road less travelled.
