Historic Bridges of Gundagai
Highlights
- Explore the stunning timber Railway Bridge, showcasing early engineering brilliance across the Murrumbidgee flats.
- Follow the River Walk from Yarri Park to experience breathtaking views of the iconic Sheahan bridges.
- Discover the historic significance of these bridges, recognised by the National Trust for their national heritage value.
- Capture striking photographs of the intricate wooden trusses that define Gundagai's unique landscape.
The landscape at Gundagai is dominated by four bridges spanning the Murrumbidgee flats: the historic Prince Alfred Bridge (demolished in November 2021), the timber Railway Bridge, and now the dual Sheahan bridges of the Hume Highway.
The timber viaducts are wonderful examples of early engineering solutions to crossing a major flood plain. Their national significance is recognised with listing by the National Trust. They are a spectacular latticework of wooden trusses, spanning the flood plains and river.
Follow the River Walk from Yarri Park, they are well worth a look! Follow the signs or pick up a brochure from the Visitor Centre.
