Renowned in History for being the only place in NSW that Ned Kelly visited and for the origin of the Jerilderie Letter, the town has six sites still intact from Ned Kelly’s visit. Jerilderie is considered the gateway to the Kidman Way, a fully sealed road to the outback travelling through Griffith, Hillston, Cobar, Bourke and onto Queensland. It is a thriving agricultural area with a variety of produce including wheat, barley, soya beans, canola, wool, beef, olive and rice.
The Willows Historic Home & Museum and the Ye Olde Bank of NSW are the highlights of the historic Powell street precinct. Pack a picnic and have a leisurely lunch and walk at Lake Jerilderie. Be sure to contact the Visitor Information centre on (03) 5886 1666 for information on town tours.
