Country NSW

Spanning west of the Great Dividing Range to outback New South Wales, from the Murray River and to the Queensland border travellers can explore the natural beauty that encompasses this region.

Revel in the cosmopolitan mood of Griffith, drop in to Deniliquin or fish the mighty Murray that winds through Albury or the Murrumbidgee River near Wagga Wagga.

Wine and food lovers are spoilt for choice with the abundance of the Young and Cowra regions and the cool-climate wines in the Orange and Mudgee area wineries. Make sure you visit one of Australia’s oldest inland communities, Bathurst and don’t miss Parkes radio telescope.

Photograph the animals at Dubbo’s zoo, bushwalk in the Warrumbungle National Park and unearth the agricultural areas of Moree and Narrabri.

Experience Tamworth’s country music festival, discover Armidale’s culture and honour the Celtic origins of Glenn Innes and Inverell. Admire the Upper Hunter and take in the colourful past of Goulburn’s bushrangers.

Heart of Country offers many ideal locations and unique experiences for the perfect holiday. See the trip planner to plan for a holiday in this region.
