GENERAL SUGGESTIONS FOR YOUR ENJOYMENT!
In planning (particularly accommodation) for The Festival why not
consider making a real break of it? Visit Orange F.O.O.D. Week - it
concludes a few days before our event begins. Check it out here Home |
Food Of Orange District (orangefoodweek.com.au).
Welcome to Orange,
We hope you enjoy your stay here and have a chance to explore our
town and surroundings.
At our local Visitor Information Centre, 151 Byng St. knowledgeable
staff members offer multiple suggestions of activities to entertain you.
They will also tell you about walking and cycling around the area and
about tours to farms and vineyards. Have a look at the Information
Centre building with its sloping lawn roof designed for children (and
intrepid adults) to roll down! You can reach the roof top via the steps, or
find the lift hidden around the corner. It is located in our cultural hub with
the Museum, the Art Gallery, Library and Theatre right on the spot.
