Two cities. Two states. One very special destination.

Albury Botanic Gardens

Albury's beautiful Botanic Gardens have been established for over 130 years and give residents and tourists alike the opportunity to see and admire the historical and horticultural significance of the gardens. Over the years, the gardens have won many prizes for layout, design, plant species and annual plantings. The curved paths and rounded shrub beds give a softer, less formal look to these gardens which once had straight paths and rows of pines, elms and other trees.

Murray River Precinct

Flowing between the twin cities of Albury Wodonga is the mighty Murray River – a unique natural playground that’s enjoyed all year round. Lining the banks of the River, Albury boasts a series of parklands and reserves that allows visitors and the local community to enjoy the beauty of the river. At Noreuil Park you’ll find places for swimming, kayaking, paddle boarding, bike riding and just relaxing. The mature River Red Gums and magnificent Plane Trees provide a welcome canopy in the summer months to those enjoying the water or taking in the views from a food-laden picnic rug.

Murray Art Museum Albury (MAMA)

A must-see in Albury is Murray Art Museum Albury (MAMA), the heart of art and culture on the Murray. One of the most visited art venues outside of Sydney, the museum has earned a reputation for its innovative, original exhibitions, featuring some of the best contemporary artists in Australia, and from around the world. Nestled between the bustling retail and restaurant precinct of Dean Street and the open green space of QEII Square, the recently redeveloped museum combines heritage features with light-filled contemporary spaces.

Junction Place

Junction Place is an exciting urban space bringing new life to the former historic railway station and rail yards in central Wodonga. The development of Junction Place has doubled the size of Wodonga’s central business district and created new and unique spaces in the city centre, including The Promenade, Junction Square and Richardson Park. Junction Place is regional Australia’s largest urban renewal project. The location hosts markets and events and is home to a number of boutique operators and Wodonga's newest fine dining and chefs hatted restaurant - Miss Amelie.

Lake Hume and Hume Dam

With a spectacular backdrop of undulating hills, and the awe-inspiring Dam Wall taking centre stage, Lake Hume is magnificent from every angle. Only 15 minutes from town, the gentle, rolling slopes of Lake Hume make it very easy to set up for the day, then cool down with a quick dip as the sun climbs high in the sky. Built between 1919 and 1936, the Hume Dam is nothing less than an engineering triumph. Viewing platforms at various points along the wall offer stunning photo ops, and perfect picnic spots at nearby Kookaburra Point, with BBQs in place for a great family day out.

Huon Hill Parklands

Rising 263 metres above the Murray and Kiewa floodplains, Huon Hill offers spectacular views of Lake Hume, the Kiewa Valley, the Alpine Region, Murray and Kiewa Rivers, and Albury and Wodonga cities. With ample seating, electric barbecues and shelters, Huon Hill is ideal for bushwalking, sightseeing, picnicking and photography. Spectacular vistas are provided by the lookouts over the Albury-Wodonga region. And there are a variety of walking tracks ranging from 200 metres to three kilometres. Huon Hill offers a variety of recreational experiences for you and the family.

Wagirra Trail and Yindyamarra Sculpture Walk

Jump on the Wagirra Trail and enjoy a leisurely walk or energetic run along the banks of the Murray River. Alternatively, you can hire a bike and follow the Wagirra Trail and connecting network of paths to explore the two cities and interpretative sculptures. The 15 kilometre (return) Murray River pathway links Wonga Wetlands with the South Albury Trail. The two-metre wide walking and cycling pathway meanders through Albury's riverside parks, with plenty of places to stop for a picnic or enjoy the spectacular views.

Monument Hill

The Monument Hill War Memorial sits atop of the hill at the western end of Albury’s main street providing stunning views of the city and surrounding region. Designed by architect Louis Harrison, the monument was unveiled on Anzac Day in 1925 in the dedication of the men and women who served in World War l.

Street Art

Yes it’s true, the natural landscapes are stunning… but we have a growing gallery of art within our streetscape too. Turn north from Albury’s Dean Street into Macaulay Street, and you’ll discover just a few of the city’s prominent street artists featured on building walls. The vibrant visual depiction of Albury sits across the road from a giant Easter bunny! While in Albury’s city centre, explore the wall art next to the Retro Café and then make a trip down Amp Lane for one of the cities newest works. Not to be outdone, Wodonga city centre has some real beauties adorning their buildings. We suggest a meander down Sesame Lane to check out the beautiful work by local artist Kirrily Anderson. And make sure you see the burst of colour on the side of the Medical Centre in Elgin Boulevard.

Albury Wodonga Farmers Market

The Albury Wodonga Farmers Market is held every Saturday at Gateway Village Wodonga - Lincoln Causeway. The farmers and producers are local to the Albury-Wodonga region. Many travel to bring fresh seasonal fruit and veggies, baked sourdough bread, preserves, artisan cakes and pies, meat including beef, goat, pork and hand-crafted small goods. The market has been operating since June 2002, originally at the Gateway Village, Lincoln Causeway, Wodonga. The Albury Wodonga Farmers Market is very proud that the person you buy from is either the farmer or the person who makes the value added produce.
