Gundagai Area

Australia's busiest highway - the Hume - takes you to historic Gundagai. A town immortalised for over a century by classic nationalistic songs. The lines we all know well, 'There's a Track Winding Back... Where the Murrumbidgee's Flowing...and the dog Sits on the Tuckerbox Five Miles from Gundagai'. This legendary monument is probably the best-known slice of Australian folklore - mateship between man and his dog. After all these years, the dog still holds pride of place at the multi-attraction tourist rest just 8 kilometres north of Gundagai on the western side of the Hume Highway. Right opposite is the tribute to Steele Rudd's famous Snake Gully characters - Dad, Dave, Mum & Mabel - all immortalised in copper.

There are many things to see in Gundagai. A unique experience is Rusconi's Marble Masterpiece. A cathedral in miniature containing 21,000 pieces of marble mined in N.S.W. It was created by former Gundagai monumental mason Frank Rusconi in his spare time over 25 years.

The Gundagai Tourist Centre houses the Rusconi Marble Masterpiece, along with other memorabilia. Stay awhile for the Two-Foot Tour of Gundagai and discover the town's history, architecture and character. The D. R. Gabriel Gallery contains hundreds of photographs of early Gundagai printed by the Australian National Library.

Well worth a visit, the majestic Gundagai Court House built in 1859 where Captain Moonlight the bushranger was sentenced, the Gundagai Historic Museum, the old 1849 Flour Mill, the town's famous bridges - the Railway Bridge built in 1901 and the sprawling Prince Alfred Bridge of 1866 - the longest timber viaduct in Australia.

Excellent accommodation is available with a choice of 7 motels, hotels, 4 star caravan village, River Caravan park and Auto Cabins. The town boasts good restaurants, cafes and coffee shops, licensed club and hotels.
