The Mudgee Region is a small region with big offerings. Sitting on the traditional lands of Wiradjuri Country, it's a 3.5-hour drive from Sydney and centrally placed in regional NSW. It brings together Mudgee, Gulgong, Rylstone and Kandos. Each town and village along the way is perfectly imperfect – so get outta town and explore.

Mudgee is nestled within rolling hills and vineyards: food and drink trails and plenty to add to the to-do list. Gulgong's goldrush-era streets and museums take you back in time. Pubs and shops: full of character and treasure troves of finds. Rylstone invites slow wandering: tree-lined streets and sandstone cottages. Local artisans and worldly cuisine are right at home here. Kandos brings bold creative energy: shaped by landscape and an industrial past.

The Mudgee Visitor Information Centre, located within the Mudgee Arts Precinct, is the brains trust. Local Experience Experts are ready with personalised itineraries and insider tips. Enough to extend your stay – all in the name of wellness. The shop also offers a haul of local goodies.

Exploring starts at the Mudgee Arts Precinct, the Region's hub for art and culture. Discover world-famous names alongside local talent. Hire gallery or workshop spaces. Enjoy Empower Café's quality coffee while supporting an Australian Disability Enterprise. Then follow the sculpture walk along the Cudgegong River into the town centre.
