About Howlong
This historic town on the Murray straddles the border between NSW and Victoria. Albury-Wodonga is just a 30-minute drive; other Murray towns nearby include Corowa and Mulwala. There’s a relaxed, small country town atmosphere here created by the rolling countryside and historic buildings that dot the landscape.
Howlong is one of the best spots on the Murray to play golf, fish for the elusive Murray cod or go wine-tasting across the river in Rutherglen. Relive the past by visiting historic buildings and museums around the town or head to nearby Albury for a paddle-steamer cruise on the river, departing from Albury.
