Start your day with a stroll, run, scoot or ride along the Macintyre River Walk – a 3 km path with the perfect pitstop of coffee for the grownups and a hunt for the Macintyre Cod Fossil for the kids at the boat ramp.
Continue to Bowen Lane and snap a picture in front of your favourite artwork. Set the kids off to find how many black cats are hidden amongst the murals. Finish off with a selfie with the statue of Goondiwindi’s famous racehorse – Gunsynd.

Still got energy to burn? Soar like an eagle on the flying fox at the Sandhurst Park or show off your moves at the Goondiwindi Skate Park.
You’ve well and truly earnt a break – grab a milkshake and wrap or hot-box special from OK Milkbar for lunch while relishing in the iconic 70’s atmosphere.
Head to the incredible historical art-deco cinema to catch the latest flick. Afterwards pop next door to the Visitor Information Centre to pick up a Birdwatchers Guide for your next adventure.
Back into nature, pack a picnic for afternoon tea and head to the Goondiwindi Botanical Gardens. Whether you stroll the walking path, slip in for a swim or BYO kayak – twitchers young and old will be thrilled at the variety of birdlife there.
If swimming in clear water is more your thing, head to the Goondiwindi Town Pool for a dip.
After a big day out, grab some fish & chips from Sonnos or a pizza from Porky’s for dinner, both in Marshall Street, and watch the sun go down over the river at the boat ramp. Day done.
If you’ve got a few kids in tow and appreciate the great outdoors, check in to Victoria Park Farm Guesthouse, around a 15-minute drive from the centre of Goondiwindi. Think tennis court, pool, beautiful interiors and incredible sunsets for the best way to end your day (and start the next!).
