Gundagai Common

Discover Gundagai's North Common
A place where history, culture and natural beauty come together.

Nestled between the Murrumbidgee River and Morley's Creek, Gundagai's North Common is a beautiful and historically significant landscape, rich in stories of the town's past. Spanning the floodplain is the impressive Historic Railway Viaduct, a striking reminder of Gundagai's engineering and railway heritage.

North Common is also the site of the original Gundagai township, tragically devastated by the Great Flood of 1852. The bravery of Wiradjuri men Yarri and Jacky Jacky, who rescued numerous townspeople, is remembered through memorials and historic cairns throughout the area.

Of deep cultural significance to the local Wiradjuri people, the Common is also home to important Aboriginal landmarks, including Bora Rings, reflecting the area's rich Indigenous heritage and connection to Country.

Take a peaceful stroll along the river beneath the historic bridges, explore the area's fascinating stories, or simply enjoy the wide-open spaces and beautiful natural surroundings.

A special place to connect with Gundagai's history, Wiradjuri culture and the beauty of the Australian landscape.
