Cowra Region
Situated on the Lachlan River, Cowra is a thriving rural centre surrounded by vineyards, cropping fields and rolling hills. It is perhaps best known for the Cowra Breakout during World War II, commemorated by a Japanese garden and cultural centre that symbolise peace and reconciliation. The region is dotted with orchards and wineries, and the nearby Wyangala Dam offers boating and fishing. Locals enjoy watching cherry blossoms fall in the Japanese Garden’s quiet corners and climbing to Bellevue Hill Lookout on a trail built by convicts for a sweeping view of the valley.
Cowra Council has an approximate area of 2,800 km².
It is within the state electorate of Cootamundra.
