Gundagai Visitor Information Centre

Stocking local produce and a wide range of souvenirs, Gundagai Visitor Information Centre is located on the left hand side of the main street (Sheridan Street) as you come into town. The friendly staff can guide you to all the attractions Gundagai has to offer. Take the Heritage Walking Tour to capture the essence of this historic and fascinating township. Gundagai's best kept secret is Rusconi`s Marble Masterpiece on display at the Visitors Centre, 20,948 pieces of carved NSW marble taking 28 years to complete. This one man`s hobby has become a must see. Enquire at the counter for an audio tour of the old Gundagai Gaol, where Captain Moonlight the bushranger was sentenced and spent the night. In Carberry Park adjacent to the centre are the Dad, Dave, Mum and Mabel copper statues, wonderfully sculptured by Aurel Ragus. The visitor centre also books Greyhound and VLine and Trainlink coach and train services.

Gundagai Museum

Reviewed By F2033PKkatem - Beverly Hills, Australia

This place only cost $5 per adult. It had a lot of Australian, country NSW & Gundagai memorabilia for all sorts of history. We spent nearly 45minutes in the museum looking at all the different sections within it. The old machinery and wagons out the back were most interesting along with the bushman's shed.

Old Gundagai Gaol

Reviewed By SandD-Jerra - Jerrabomberra, Australia

The self guided tour with headsets was fantastic it really made it an experience. The headsets and walking tour recorder from the Information Centre was easy to use and easy to obtain and reasonably priced. To spend time in the old goal and hear the stories was wonderful. Well worth the time...spend time enjoy...who knew this was here.

Gundagai Heritage Railway

Reviewed By Norma1965 - Moruya, Australia

By donations, this piece of local history has been saved. Plenty of photos to show what was. Shame that the line doesn’t have an original train still chugging away.

Gundagai - Rotary Lookout

Reviewed By Batty_80Wright

The view is spectacular, especially the view of the old bridges. A little bit windy, and there were also some horses to talk to.

Yarri and Jacky Jacky Sculpture

Reviewed By M7025NQtonyw - Sydney, Australia

Unfortunately we have not done the best of jobs recognising indigenous Australian’s contributions, this however is slowly changing for the better. It is sculptures and installations like this that get people both young and old asking questions about the history associated with the sculpture. These questions help to gain understanding and this helps make a difference. Well done to the town of Gundagai!

The Prince Alfred Bridge

Reviewed By gregoryd762

This over 800m timber truss bridge, originally carrying the Hume Highway over the Murrumbidgee flood plain is a wonderful example of 19th century technology. Although classified as a historic ruin, enough remains to show what an amazing construction it was.
