Before you go

Activities

The Macquarie Pass drive is popular with motorcyclists. Belmore Falls and Macquarie Pass National Park are the main natural attractions nearby.

Food

The Robertson Pie Shop is the standout food destination, open daily from 7AM (8AM weekends). Try the apricot pies with fresh cream for something decadent.

Transport

Robertson has no local public transport or taxis. Coaches run three times daily from Wollongong and Moss Vale via NSW Trainlink. The Cockatoo Run heritage train visits on some Sundays.

Weather

Robertson's climate differs from the coast—mist and showery rain are common in winter. Summer brings heat but also flies on farmland walks.
