Capital Country Travel Guide

Tourist Guide

Fitzroy Falls, New South Wales, Australia
Fitzroy Falls, New South Wales, Australia
We were lucky to visit when there was some good recent rain.
The falls at Micalong Creek just south of Wee Jasper. Wee Jasper is a small village with a population of around 275 people, according to the Australian Bureau of Statistics, although it swells to nearly 2000 over the Christmas/New Year period. Its eighty minutes North West of Canberra and 45 minutes South West of Yass nestled not far from the Goodradigbee River and the Hume and Hovell walking track. 

Be warned there is not much there, both the General Store and Hotel where closed until further notice when I visited so take your own provisions.
Some of the rest stops along the Federal Highway from Canberra  to Sydney give you the most stunning views!

Looks can be deceiving from the outside, but the room itself was clean and adequate for our stay. The staff were super lovely and check-in was easy. I'd definitely stay again if we're back in the area.

What a surprisingly tranquil stay! Just the sound of the birds, a lone wind chime, and the smell of the roses wafting through the garden. Super comfy bed, everything we could need was there, just the break from reality we needed.
