CHILTERN INFORMATION
CENTRE
(Nanna's Knook)
An Historic Gold
Town |
|
|
Chiltern is an historic gold mining village in Victoria's
north-east.
The Chiltern Visitor Information Centre is situated in Nanna's Knook where
you will be treated with country hospitality and receive advice on
everything and anything to see and do around Chiltern. The information
centre has a good range of maps and books to choose from. |
|
The first enjoyable task at Chiltern is usually to
explore the fascinating old main street with its mix of curiosity shops,
coffee shops and restaurants and essential rural services. |
|
|
|
After exploring the main street, go for a walk
around the lake and be rewarded with close encounters with the birdlife and
some great town views. |
|
For those into historic mines and mining areas, there is
plenty to see and do in the forests around Chiltern. Ask for details of the
forest tour at the information centre. |
|
|
|
If you are a keen birdwatcher, look for some of the old
mining dams situated not far from the township. Because of the permanency of
the water, rare birds can sometimes be seen in and around these dams.
To explore the area in
detail, you should look for a copy of the Beechworth - Albury - Wangaratta
map by Rooftop Maps, available at the information centre or newsagency. |
