Family holidays in Wagga Wagga and surrounds

There are plenty of things to do in this diverse area for the whole family. Wander through the Wagga Wagga Botanic Gardens which houses a mini zoo, free-flight aviary, miniature railway and an artificial lake. Go for a swim or ride the wave ball at Oasis Aquatic Centre, a real treat in summer.

Be sure to check out the Dog on the Tuckerbox at nearby Gundagai, a monument inspired by the famous ballad about man's best friend. Sample some baked goods at the Gundagai Bakery, the oldest operating bakery in the State.

Introduce the kids to beautiful, organic produce at the Junee Liquorice and Chocolate Factory and watch them devour a traditional Devonshire Tea.

Other family-friendly activities include the antique aircraft and special flying days at Temora Aviation Museum; at Cootamundra, cricket fans will love visting the Sir Donald Bradman Birthplace Museum.
