Kangaroo Valley is one of the main drawcards for early European settlers, the rich volcanic soils of the area are ideal for farming.
The small township developed around the river and, when the beautiful sandstone Hampden Bridge was built in 1898, it opened up the valley to visitors.
Hampden Bridge, now the oldest surviving suspension bridge in Australia, is said to be the most photographed in the country.
Kangaroo Valley is both pretty and dramatic –remnants of rainforest cling to the steep escarpment, while the Kangaroo River and small creeks criss-cross the valley. Here you can enjoy the ideal ingredients of a short break – cafés, galleries, pubs, cabins in the bush and bushwalks.
