Denmark

4th December

Denmark is a lovely little town on the southern coastline of Australia – the first of our Southern Ocean stops. And yes, the water is cold!! The coastline is stunning, particularly around Green Pools and Elephant Rocks.

There are some nice surfing beaches in the area too. We liked Light’s Beach.

There is a nice little scenic drive to the west that takes you past a number of wineries. There’s also a great little brewery just out of town.

 On the way we stopped at the Alpaca Farm. This is the best interactive farm that I’ve been to. The kids had a ball patting and feeding all the animals.

We had a lovely riverside campsite to base ourselves, with nice scenery and easily accessible walking and cycling trails.

The scenery on our drive from Margaret River to here was lovely as we drove through a number of old growth forests with some huge trees.

We broke our journey for one night at Walpole. This was another pretty campsite on the banks of the river inlet. I made the mistake of feeding a Kookaburra and within minutes he had brought back all his mates.
