Where Connection Happens, Naturally

Albury Wodonga is a natural meeting place in every way. For thousands of years, people have gathered, shared, and celebrated at this special place in the foothills of the Australian Alps and on the banks of the Murray River.

The twin cities of Albury and Wodonga straddle the Murray River and the New South Wales/Victoria border, and nearby Lake Hume is six times the size of Sydney Harbour.

Local wetlands, trails, and rivers, pair with homely accommodation and cafes for post-adventure recovery. When are you getting here?
