Let Balingup awaken your senses with the changing seasons; smell the clean air, the fresh cut hay and the eucalyptus forest after rain. Hear the cockatoos, kookaburras and the frogs as day fades to night. See the kangaroos in the golden light or the jewel like colours of autumn leaves. Feel the cool misty mornings and warm winter fires. Taste a crisp, juicy apple fresh from the orchard.
A small but vibrant village, Balingup is nestled amongst rolling hills in the Blackwood River Valley situated two and half hours southwest of Perth, Western Australia, in the picturesque Shire of Donnybrook – Balingup.

Take a scenic drive to the nearby towns of Donnybrook, Bridgetown, Boyup Brook or Nannup. Sample the local wine regions of the Blackwood River Valley, Geographe, and Ferguson Valley.
