A day trip guide to York

Plus it's almost Radiothon month.

August 05, 2025

Good morning! A little bit short on ideas for today’s introduction so will just take the time instead to say thanks if you’re reading this! We know appearing in your inbox every day of the week can be a lot, so if you take the time to read through every one that’s amazing. If you just have a quick skim, that’s great too, and if you just can’t be arsed on whatever day it is, that’s totally understandable.

Human beings get bombarded with so much information from so many different sources basically every bit of the day, so we don’t want to add to the noise. Hopefully every now and then you get a useful little nugget of goodness to help you with weekend adventure plans, or a cheeky meal deal when you don’t feel like cooking, or perhaps even an event you didn’t know was on ‘til you saw it here first.

Just being a teeny tiny part of your morning routine is something we don’t take for granted, so if there’s not much here for you today, file this one away and we’ll try again tomorrow.

Taking in forests, old rail trails, farmland, cosy towns and a section of the coastline, this is a great (and fast) way of exploring the south west.

The best things to do in York

Located 98km from the Perth CBD, the small town nestled on the Avon River is WA’s oldest inland European settlement. It’s a 90-minute road trip from the sparkling city lights, near enough to go for a day, but charming enough to stay.
