Summary
Weather for Cowra

Cowra is a scenic four-hour drive from Sydney and a two-hour drive from Canberra. It has a wealth of country experiences from relaxing along the extensive waterways to exploring the tranquil Japanese Garden. Take a trip down memory lane and experience Cowra's fascinating history, from the days of steam trains to the largest Prisoner Of War breakout in modern military history.

Food and wine buffs can tour Cowra's ever-expanding vineyards to sample the superb local food and wine that is available. Where better to enjoy fine wine and delicious food, than right in the heart of where it is actually produced.

Nearby horse riding and hot air ballooning offer unique ways to see the countryside. The remarkable Japanese Gardens are not only a triumph of architecture but in part commemorate the mass breakout of Japanese from Cowra's POW camp in 1945.

Astronomy buffs will certainly want to check out Darbys Falls Observatory and for a further piece of Australian history, the War, Rail and Rural Museums.
