Bombala Information
Situated midway between the mountains and the South Coast, Bombala was settled in the1840s largely because of its rich grazing pastures. The area is famous for its stream trout fishing. Bombala Shire is known as Platypus Country because of the high concentration of these shy animals in the rivers around Bombala.
Things to do and see around Bombala include seeing platypus at the Platypus Reserve, about four kilometres along the Delegate Road. The Bondi State Forest offers spectacular scenery which can best be appreciated by following some of the 85 kilometres of trails specially built for mountain biking. The production of lavender products such as jams, soaps and oils is a thriving local industry with the lavender said to be on par with that produced in France.
The old railway station buildings house Railway Land, home to Monaro Country Lavender’s oldest lavender association and Lavender House is great for shopping.
