About Taralga
Taralga is one of the charming country towns near Goulburn, about 2.5 hours drive from Sydney and about 1.5 hours drive from Canberra. It's a great base if you want to explore the spectacular Wombeyan Caves.
Taralga's many historic sites are easily discovered on a town walk or local drive to see historic sites that reflect the area's colonial past – churches, woolsheds and even "Old Macquarie Road", the first road to Sydney. Stay in a country pub or country cottage, go trout fishing or be part of the fun at Taralga's annual Heritage Rally in November.
