Ettamogah
EttamogahOZ E Wildlife
Ten km out of Albury,
established in 1969, by the Wildlife Conservation Society.
Many of the animals and birds on display were brought in orphaned, sick or injured, and were nursed back to health.
Most of the animals are released into the bush on recovery,
some would not survive in the wild and remain at the sanctuary.
A beautiful park with free roaming native birds and animals
yarded and caged exhibits, information boards and picnic/barbecue
facilities.
A very popular visiting place, for visitors and locals alike year round. Phone: (02) 60403677
The Ettamogah Pub was the inspiration of Maynard's cartoons
and a flash of genius by Lindsay Cooper that saw the creation
of Australia's most famous pub.
Complete with old truck on the roof, outward leaning walls, a tree that stands right in the middle (through two floors), talking cockies and old work boots; these days the Ettamogah Pub is the centre piece of a whole village that's brimming with attractions and activities for all the family.
The complex also has built a Pottery and a Blacksmith's Shop, and there's the lock-up in case anyone decides to come the "raw prawn".
For the young at heart try the dodgem cars, an enormous selection of gifts to choose from in the Souvenir Shop and they're all Aussie Made!
The Ettamogah Winery is a must for those looking for good
quality wine at cellar door prices.
Producing a fine range of red and white table wines and
fortifieds including muscat, port and sherry. Delightfully
refreshing and puts a twinkle in everybody's eye.
Open 7 days a week for tasting and sales.
Adjacent to the Winery is Coopers Courtyard Restaurant which has a great reputation for fine food in a unique Australian setting. Many locals and visitors alike take advantage of this unique fully licensed venue which boasts menus to suit all budgets.
