About Junee
Junee is a quaint rural town set between rolling hills and the Murrumbidgee River, 480 km south-west of Sydney. This pretty railway town has many fine features - wide awnings, verandahs, wide streets and eccentric old-style architecture. Wander around town and enjoy the unusual architecture, starting with the Renaissance-style railway station built in 1885. Drop into the Broadway Museum to learn more.
Other activities in Junee include fishing, swimming or sailing at Bethungra Dam and bird watching at the Junee wetlands. A highlight is sampling the delights of Junee Licorice and Chocolate Factory, housed in the historical Junee flour mill.
