Through the Verwall Valley, the tranquil setting of the Verwall valley is perfect for taking a leisurely sleigh ride. An excellent way for non-skiers to take in the sights and skiers to have a break from the slopes.

Al-Murabba Palace offers a direct insight into the life of King Abdulaziz Al-Saud, the founder of modern Saudi Arabia. Built just outside old Riyadh's walls, this square, mud-brick complex served as his official residence and the seat of government from 1938. Its design, centred around a large internal courtyard, reflects both traditional Najdi architecture and the need for privacy and security. The palace's 32 rooms, now a museum, display personal effects, historical photographs, and administrative offices, providing a tangible connection to a pivotal era in the nation's history.

Port Stephens is a prime location to observe humpbacks and southern right whales during their annual migration. From mid-May to early September, thousands of whales head north to their breeding grounds, and from mid-September to mid-October, they migrate south. You might even see mothers with their newborn calves in the calmer waters. Watch them from Tomaree Head Summit, or get up close on a tour from Nelson Bay.
