Places worth discovering
Albury Wodonga is at the centre of a heritage-rich and naturally stunning region. From boutique antiques to seriously good fortified wines and more than a touch of bushranger legend.
Discover the charm and history of neighbouring Yackandandah, Rutherglen, Chiltern, Beechworth, Myrtleford and Milawa. Indulge in Gundowring ice cream, Boosey Creek cheeses and a glass of Rutherglen Red.
Mt Buffalo, Mt Beauty and Bright are well known for access to snow but also provide year-round adventure, offering mountain biking, rock climbing, kayaking and more. Or just head straight to the snowfieds of Mt Hotham and Falls Creek.
For a peaceful alternative, simply escape into one of the many bush parks in the foothills of the Great Dividing Range and Victorian Alps.
