Get ready for an unforgettable adventure in the stunning Oberon region! The Fish & Forage 4WD Adventure, as part of the month long Field to Forest event, is set to take place on Saturday, 22nd March 2025, as part of the renowned Oberon Field to Forest Festival. This one-of-a-kind experience, hosted by local off-road expert Simmo, offers the perfect combination of outdoor exploration and culinary delight.
Designed as a family-friendly 4WD Tag-a-Long Tour, the adventure will take participants deep into the breathtaking Oberon Highlands, providing a chance to connect with nature while discovering the unique foods of the forest. With a focus on foraging and fishing, this trip offers a hands-on approach to the paddock-to-plate experience, making it a must-do for nature lovers and food enthusiasts alike.
One of the highlights of the tour is the opportunity to forage for the highly sought-after Saffron Milk Cap mushroom in the Jenolan Forest. These delicious wild mushrooms are a seasonal delicacy, prized by chefs and foodies for their rich, nutty flavour. Guided by Simmo’s expertise, participants will learn how to safely identify and harvest these treasures from the forest floor.
The adventure doesn’t stop there! After foraging, the group will make their way to the picturesque Duckmaloi River to try their hand at trout fishing. With the pristine waters providing an ideal habitat for trout, this is a fantastic chance to catch your own fresh fish and truly embrace the paddock-to-plate ethos.
Throughout the journey, the tour will traverse the rugged beauty of the Kanangra-Boyd National Park, offering breathtaking views and an immersive 4WD experience. The track is rated as a “medium grade” trail, making it suitable for 4WD vehicles equipped with low range. Whether you’re an experienced off-roader or a first-timer, Simmo will ensure this guided tour ensures a safe and enjoyable experience for all.
