Bodalla was one of the rst towns in the early English colony to stamp its own innovative ways on the budding Australian dairy industry.
That innovative spirit is still at play today through the Bodalla Cheese Factory, which sends local dairy products to market in Sydney each week.
Bodalla’s other standout is the beautiful All Saints church, a short stroll from the village’s welcoming pub, café and bakery and one of a kind shops.
Often a venue for jazz recitals, this church deserves your attention.
A cracking tale of bushrangers and gold sits at
the heart of your visit to Nerrigundah. Historical artefacts dot the village and invite you to consider a time when this small village to the west of Bodalla was home to several thousand people, ve hotels and several shops and a large Chinese population seeking their fortune in Gulph Creek.
The bustling village of Mogo belies the full depth of its past. The many treats, speciality items and handcrafted goods are housed in some of the town’s original dwellings, adding an extra layer to your slow wander. The Original Gold Rush Colony is a step back in time, and the acclaimed Mogo Zoo is your other reason to visit.
Nelligen has always been a drawcard for traf c along the tranquil Clyde River and now a popular destination for houseboats, shermen and kayakers. Nelligen was once a bustling port for steamers taking people and cargo between the Southern Tablelands and Sydney. The village now moves to
a slower pace, but a stroll around the water’s edge does conjure up the images and sounds of the
busy pioneer town, part of a history that is yours to explore and imagine.
