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 />
