Those heading to Western Australia soon might want to check out the Avon Descent – a unique event situated in some very picturesque scenery.

It passes through Northam and Toodyay, as well as the Swan Valley vineyard region and forested national parks, challenging participants to travel by power and paddle craft to cover 134 kilometres in only two days.

Australia holidays often provide visitors with the chance to see some wonderful sporting activities and, according to the region’s tourist organisation, this is a great even to add to the list.

It takes place on August 7th and 8th and is expected to see people from all over the globe take part.

Northam and Toodyay are worth a visit, located in the stunning Avon Valley, which is located a short distance east of Perth. Accommodation, restaurants and a variety of services are able to provide tourists with a genuine taste of Western Australia, according to the location’s official website.
