On The Border

The local wineries are only a half-hour away, where you can taste some of the best wines from Australia. Get a bottle of your favourite wine and have a picnic lunch down by the Murray River.

Lake Hume is very close; there is the Lake Hume Resort as well as all the water sports that you may ever want to try, such as water skiing, sailing, jet skiing, or just plain sunbaking and swimming. There is also the PS Cumberoona, the paddle steamer, where visitors can take a trip on the river and the world-famous Ettamogah Pub, which has to be seen to be believed. Albury has all the usual facilities of a city without the hustle and bustle, including great wining and dining, shopping, an internet café called Cyber Heaven, banks, and a post office, as well as a beautiful Botanic Garden and Monument. The surrounding areas offer a wealth of history from places like Beechworth (Gold Mining) and Yackandandah (Paul Hogan's film, Strange Bedfellows, was filmed here).
