Take time to wander C

The Kings Highway runs through the heart of QueanbeyanPalerang and links Canberra to the sparkling waters of the South Coast of NSW. It is a region full of contrast with a distinctive character of its own.

From the future-focused city of Queanbeyan, to the historic township of Braidwood and the delightful country town of Bungendore, there’s something for everyone to explore and uncover.
