About Gundaroo
Gundaroo is a fine example of a small, 19th-century Australian village, set on the banks of the Yass River and framed by wooded hills. Just 50 km south-east of Yass, the town is a great place to relax and unwind with good food and wine and easy touring options in the area.
Wander by the town common, one of the few remaining functioning areas of its kind in New South Wales where villagers still graze their cattle. Check out the Gundaroo Store, a restored emporium of yesteryear, with its treasure trove of art and collectables or take a side trip to Sutton or Murrumbateman, 30 km south-west.
