Book Direct with the Owner at Boorowa with New South Wales Tourism in Boorowa, for all your holiday and travel needs.
This small country town set in fertile tablelands north of Canberra stages an annual spectacle known as the Running of the Sheep. Part of the annual Irish Woolfest, this event celebrates Boorowa's colourful Irish heritage and its rich pastoral history.
While the Running of the Sheep is the major draw card for visitors, there's also lots of fun with a street parade, Irish singers and dancers, pipe bands and hot air ballooning.
Other highlights of Boorowa include the beautiful stained glass windows at Saint Patrick's Catholic Church and viewing endangered native bird species at the local aviary. Enjoy a relaxing picnic on the shores of nearby Wyangala Dam....
