Wine, food and nature together in one location
The Wine & Wetland Centre is a creation of sustainable materials with an aim to make a small footprint on the landscape. Take in the views as you taste some of our award winning local wines at our cellar door, relax on the deck with a meal from our restaurant or try one of three self guided walking trails which allow you to explore magnificently restored wetlands with story centres, information huts and bird-viewing hides.
Our Wetland Centre offers visitors the opportunity to learn more about the wetland environment while visiting the cellar door or taking a tour of the walking trails.

Restoration
At Banrock Station, our commitment to producing good wine is matched only by our passion for conserving the environment. Since 1994, we have been restoring the wetlands through a number of activities including reintroducing natural wetting and drying cycles in the wetland, planting thousands of native trees and shrubs, and creating a haven for native wildlife.
In 2002, the wetland was listed under the Ramsar Convention on Wetlands, recognising its international significance as habitat for threatened species and migratory birds. The natural habitat zones on the property exist side-by-side with vineyards which comply with the highest environmental standards.
After years of working to restore the floodplain and woodlands Banrock Station has created a thriving habitat for native flora and fauna.
