Overview

Gundagai is a romantic outback town that became a byword for Australian rural life, immortalized in folk songs like 'Where the Dog Sits on the Tuckerbox' and Banjo Paterson's 'The Road to Gundagai.' Gold mining and bushranging gave it a storied past, and it's still referenced in Henry Lawson and C.J. Dennis works.
