Gulgong’s narrow bent streets and high footpaths featured on the Australian ten dollar note for many years. The township was founded in the gold rush era when an estimated 20,000 people flocked to the area.

Whilst the streetscapes and heritage buildings haven’t changed much since the late 1800s, you’ll find a progressive and passionate community eager to welcome visitors and share their stories.

Taste modern local produce from a range of coffee shops and dining experiences. Each year iconic events including the Henry Lawson Festival, Gulgong Gold and Mining Festival, Gulgong Folk Festival and Gulgong Show are held. You can also find hidden treasures and local produce at the monthly Gulgong Markets.
