Tourism Souther Highlands

The Southern Highlands is a unique area. In fact it is hard to find a region similar anywhere else in Australia. Indeed, to most visitors it is as if they are entering "another world". Many visitors are now discovering a destination with all the attractions they desire within a comfortable traveling distance of Sydney, Canberra, the South Coast and Illawarra, coming to see attractions such as magnificent gardens, antiques, heritage and wondrous natural attractions. A place to relax, escape, unwind, and rejuvenate within easy reach of two of Australia’s major cities.
Trying to pinpoint why so many people are attracted to the Southern Highlands is all but impossible.The scenery? Yes, but visitors are divided between the rolling green hills and the dramatic waterfalls in the true national park wilderness. Shopping? Definitely, but is it the markets, the antiques, the books or the specialty shops.The sense of history is a big drawcard, some like the quaint villages, while others enjoy the sporting memorabilia.While away a day or two, visiting cellar doors and treating the senses to a cool climate food and wine experience.No matter what brings you to the Southern Highlands, you'll have something in common with everyone, and that's trouble deciding what to do first.Through its Visitor Information Centre, Tourism Southern Highlands sells tickets for many local attractions.View the many activities and attractions the Southern Highlands has to offer via the menu of the left.

Yarrawonga Mulwala Tourism
The Pangerang Tribe, were the original aboriginal inhabitants of the area, from Howlong to Berrigan, and are attributed with naming the two towns. "Yarra" means "water running over rocks" and "wonga" was named after the "wonga pigeon", which were very plentiful in the region at that time. Mulwala means big lagoon or big back water.

In 1841 there was believed to be 12,000 members of the Pangerang tribe along The Murray River. White settlement marked the beginning of the end for the aborigines.

By 1870 the last corroboree was enacted by warriors in full war paint. On October 10th, 1888 an aboriginal woman, Mary Jane Milawa died. She was believed to be the last member of the Pangerang tribe.
