Attractions in Woomargama

Woomargama, a picturesque village in New South Wales, offers a range of attractions for nature enthusiasts and those seeking a tranquil retreat. One of the prominent attractions is the Woomargama National Park, the largest protected area of forest west of the Great Dividing Range in south-eastern NSW. The park provides opportunities for camping, hiking, 4WD touring, birdwatching, and wildlife watching, with the chance to spot endangered species such as the regent honeyeater, superb parrot, and powerful owl. The Hume and Hovell walking track, which cuts through the park, is ideal for bushwalking, offering stunning vistas from Norths Lookout. Additionally, the park features unsealed routes for 4WD and cycling, as well as peaceful picnic areas like the Tunnel Road picnic area.

In addition to the natural beauty of the national park, Woomargama is also home to the Flyfaire Wines, where visitors can indulge in wine tasting and enjoy the scenic surroundings. This can be a delightful experience for those interested in local produce and vineyard landscapes.

Furthermore, the village itself has a rich history, with the Woomargama Public School, which opened in 1873 and closed in 1997, and the legacy of the 'tourist road' (Tunnel Road) from Woomargama to Dora Dora, built in the 1930s. The village's Visitor Information Point at the post office is a great resource for obtaining local advice on things to do in Woomargama.
