Rich in adventure, heritage and natural escapes ....<br />
The Macarthur region, <strong>com</strong>prising the townships of Camden and<br />
<strong>Campbelltown</strong>, is full of unexpected surprises. Surrounded by spectacular<br />
scenic hills, nature reserves and the Georges and Nepean Rivers, the<br />
region is a vibrant, bustling area that still retains a warm country feel.<br />
Situated less than an hour outside the Sydney CBD, Macarthur is easily<br />
accessible by either road or rail and has something for everyone. It is a<br />
place for dining, entertainment, adventure activities, heritage and is a great<br />
location to get up close with nature.<br />
The <strong>com</strong>bination of lifestyle, culture and unique attractions is why more and<br />
more people are discovering the Macarthur region and placing it at the top<br />
of their ‘must visit’ list.<br />
Adventure of a Lifetime<br />
In Macarthur, you are sure to find an outdoor experience to match your sense<br />
of adventure and excitement. Fly high above the valley on a vintage tiger<br />
moth flight or float on cloud nine in a hot air balloon.<br />
If you dare, try the thrill of tandem skydiving, no experience necessary,<br />
just bring along your fearlessness and adrenalin. If you prefer to stay<br />
grounded, take to the hills on a leisurely cross-country horse ride.<br />
Living History<br />
Rich in history and character, Macarthur was the birthplace of Australia’s<br />
wool, wine and wheat industries.<br />
Today, these links with the history of colonial settlement are reflected in<br />
the large number of heritage listed buildings still scattered throughout<br />
the region.<br />
A relaxing walk down the town’s main streets will reveal just some of the<br />
region’s rich array of colonial architecture. Self guided heritage tours<br />
help bring this history to life. Tour brochures are available from the Visitor<br />
Information Centres.<br />
