Historic Bombala
Situated in the south-east corner of New South Wales, Bombala is only a short two hour drive from Canberra. The Bombala region is known for its old growth forests and as well as its many waterways and excellent fishing. And, of course, our most famous and popular resident, the platypus. You can spot our local icon in the river located 200 meters from our front door, or at the Platypus Reserve nearby.
The town of Bombala features many unique shops, supermarkets, restaurants and cafes. Plus local pubs and a tourist centre. Bombala hosts many popular events such as the Annual Celebration of Motorcycles, the Historic Engine Rally and the Riverside Art and Craft Festival. It's an excellent stop on your way through to the coast or the snow, or just a great destination spot on it's own!
