Hastings
Hastings
and the surrounding district - although separate for much of their
history - were socially one from the beginning. An urbanised,
industrial-age society grew and flourished in both town and country
from the earliest settler days. People looked to the city Hastings for
services and facilities regardless of where they lived; and people in
both town and country relied on employment or enterprise to earn money
for buying the food, medical facilities and other services they needed
to survive. |

We have over 40 established wineries, each with their own individual character and charm. Some are small boutique and other's, major operations who have spared no expense in setting themselves up. Here you'll find an array of impressive modern architecture set harmoniously in breathtaking landscapes. Most have cellar door tastings and many offer alfresco dining to complement the experience. Professionally guided tours are available or pick up a wine map and take yourself. |
The
Heritage Trails identify the many interesting treasures the Hastings
District has to offer locals and visitors alike. They offer a
travelling and exploration experience incorporating scenic, cultural
and historic landmarks by using brochures, direction signs and
interpretive site signs to provide a fascinating journey of discovery
for the independent traveller. Their history not only means they
can be shared by all, but it means that old stories of the past can be
handed down to the next generation and not lost forever. |
