Railway getaway

Chocolate tours, antique locomotives and cultural attractions are just three ways to immerse yourself in the fascinating township of Junee.

Located a short half-hour drive from Wagga Wagga along the scenic Canola Trail, Junee is brimming with things to do. Soak in the region’s colourful countryside and beautifully preserved historic buildings dating back to the 1800s.

Railway buffs will be mesmerised by the largest working railway roundhouse in the southern hemisphere, and if that’s not enough, be sure to take a visit to the Bethungra Rail Spiral, one of only two 360-degree rail spirals of its type in Australia. Don’t miss the recently refurbished Junee Railway Station, a beautifully restored piece of history that adds to the town’s rich railway heritage.

Take in the local history with visits to Monte Cristo, the Athenium Theatre, or the historic Junee Hotel, built in 1878.  Don’t miss the opportunity to satisfy your sweet tooth at the world-famous Junee Licorice and Chocolate Factory or explore more local history at the Broadway Museum.

A short drive out of town and you can explore the natural beauty of Bethungra Dam and Sandy Beach Reserve – both great spots for camping.

Pop in and say hello to the friendly staff at the Junee Visitor Information Centre located at the Junee Library, a great source of local knowledge. Make tracks to Junee for an unforgettable experience. Discover more about Junee
