Only an hour’s drive north of Canberra, the Boorowa Shire begs exploration by anyone yearning an unspoiled and relatively undiscovered genuine Australian country experience. It is located on the edge of the Southern Tablelands and can be reached either via Bathurst and Cowra, or Goulburn and Yass.

Galleries and cafes are open all weekend and will entice you with their hidden treasures. Stay a while in our country accommodation to suit your budget, from pub accommodation to quality bed and breakfasts.

Boorowa township's street facade is reminiscent of a bygone era. While in the Boorowa district be sure not to miss The old Court House which houses an arts and craft co-op, St Patrick's Catholic Church which is reminiscent of a miniature church, The River Walk along the Boorowa River and nearby Wyangala Dam.
