A two-hour drive from Sydney, one from Canberra, and on the Sydney to Melbourne train line, Goulburn became Australia’s first inland city in 1863. This thriving agricultural district and wool capital built by explorers, ex-convicts, gold-diggers and bushrangers is well worth exploring. Conquer nature by abseiling, caving, hiking and the rush of car racing, or go for sedate historic walks through town and sip the newest grapes at Kingsdale Wines. Rest your head in one of our inviting hotels, all bookable with Culture Trip.
