Forbes is known for its magnificent heritage buildings, rich history and gold rush past, stunning natural environment and unique local attractions.

And with an extensive offering of places to explore, eat, stay and shop you’ll wish you had planned to stay a little longer.

Treat yourself with a spot of retail therapy at our home-grown boutique stores, enjoy a “bite”, or coffee, at our quaint cafés or a meal at one of our friendly country pubs or restaurants.

Or, perhaps you just wish to unwind in nature: take a stroll around Lake Forbes, visit the nature reserve at Gum Swamp Bird Hide or meander along the banks of the Lachlan River. And while doing so, discover the incredible Sculpture Down the Lachlan public art trail, and learn about Wiradjuri cultural heritage.
