1. Gundagai Visitor Information Centre
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 72 reviews
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.

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.

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

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!

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.

If you are on a road trip that includes the Hume Highway the dog in the tucker box is a must stop. There is a fabulous little cafe full of local merchandise and locally produced food. Perfect for souvenir gifts to take home. There is even a tucker box for you to sit on and take a selfie. Throw a coin in the fountain and support the local charity.
