Bargo 

More photos   

Bargo located 100 kilometres south west of Sydney which boasts quiet country life, clear fresh air and a myriad of attractions. Bargo is a popular venue for cycling! Just an hours drive or, within easy access by rail.

For the visitor Bargo offers some of the most spectacular natural countryside outside of Sydney - lookouts, bushwalking, picnic areas, flora and fauna sanctuaries, and quiet country roads to explore. All just over an hour from most of Sydney, just minutes off the freeway, and just minutes from many other exciting places to visit in the southern area of the Wollondilly.

A visit to Bargo is worth a half day or day's trip from Sydney, or a diversion off the freeway heading north. Be prepared to spend a few hours here, though, to visit any of its many attractions - or better still, stay at a charming B&B set in acres of gardens. Accommodation is also available at the motel, caravan park, hotel; camping at Wirrimbirra and cabin accommodation for families and groups.

On passing through it is easy to regard Bargo as yet another sleepy country village. The modest retail area on the old highway, and the remains of the original village (on the other side of the railway, near the hotel) give this impression. Bargo, however, with its shiny new railway station vies with Tahmoor and Picton for the title of largest town in the Wollondilly. Being close to the freeway and hence just over an hour from the city, Bargo has become a popular commuter suburb.

Petrol, food and shops available; hotel and licensed club; picnic area at Railside Road.

So next time you see the 'Bargo' turnoff on the freeway - take it, and spend a bit of time exploring this beautiful area.
