National Trust and Heritage Council classification.
And for those who appreciate
award winning quality wine...
the many local Mudgee wineries hold delightful surprises, just down Henry Lawson
Drive. The first grapes were grown in the 1820's and whilst there are now many
wineries which welcome interested visitors, the
relaxed and friendly
approach has never changed.
Gulgong also offers the best in local art, craft, pottery and antiques as well as piping hot coffee, fresh baked country fare or a cold draught refreshment.
Other activities that can be arranged include: Golf; tennis; bowls; walking; swimming; squash; cycling; horse riding; fishing; gliding; cricket; football; horse racing; guided day tours of wineries; aboriginal sites, farming properties and villages to explore.
The truth is............. you could spend a week in Gulgong and hardly scratch the surface. |
A
visit to Gulgong
is an ideal way to enjoy the excitement of
Australia's gold rush history
and stroll through a streetscape that has changed little since
Henry Lawson's time.
With settlement dating back to the 1820's and the impact of the gold rush of the
1870's still preserved ... there's hours of simple pleasure just outside The
Stable's gate.
