Woongarra Cottage - Tranquil Off-Grid Nature Escape in a Bush Setting

Your Tranquil Off-Grid Nature Escape Awaits

Nestled on 40 acres of peaceful bushland in Chiltern–Mt Pilot National Park, Woongarra offers a truly off-grid experience surrounded by nature.

The property is adjacent to Reedy Creek, one of Victoria’s premier gold panning locations, and is home to kangaroos, wallabies, elusive wombats, koalas and monitor lizards, and a diverse variety of bird species—perfect for nature lovers and wildlife watchers.

Located along a designated tourist route on an unsealed gravel road, the area features interpretive signage sharing stories from the gold rush era and the infamous Kelly Gang. This is more than a destination—it’s a step into history.

You're just:
- 10 minutes from Woolshed Falls
- 20 minutes from the historic town of Beechworth
- 15 minutes from the gold mining township of Eldorado, with its museum, McEvoy Tavern (Victoria’s smallest bar), and the iconic historic gold dredge

On Your Doorstep
From the cottage, you can enjoy a wide range of activities in the local area including:
- Bird watching
- Gold panning
- Crystal and gemstone fossicking
- Cycling – close to the Indigo Epic MTB Trail and great gravel riding routes
- Bushwalking and nature trails
- Swimming at nearby Eldorado Top Cut

Relax or Adventure – Your Choice
Whether you're looking to unwind or explore, Woongarra is the perfect base. Indulge in local wineries, breweries, and distilleries, or discover the natural beauty and heritage of Victoria's stunning North East.
