Tooleybuc

Tooleybuc is a well-known holiday destination for families and is a great stop-over point on the route from Adelaide to Sydney – the perfect place to get off the highway and unwind.

Popular for its riverside location, the area is also rich in industry from large-scale dry land cereal and livestock production, to small intensive horticulture, wineries and tourist businesses. It’s a vibrant community with plenty of attractions to explore, including the historic Tooleybuc Bridge built in 1925. The region has recently experienced significant growth through production of almond and pistachio nuts.

Tooleybuc boasts a number of beautifully maintained parks along the river that make for fabulous lunch or rest stops with plenty of amusement on offer for the kids. It's also a great part of the world to visit with your boat and fishing rod, featuring a community boat ramp in operation near the centre of town.

  • Visit the Bridge Keepers Cottage Community Op Shop located in a charming heritage building, with a rich history.
  • Be amazed at the size of the Giant Mallee Root (the biggest stump in NSW and second largest in the world according to the Guinness World Records) and learn all about the rare and endangered Dinosaur Ant. Both are on display at the Tooleybuc Sports Club.
  • Built in 1925, the heritage-listed Tooleybuc Bridge is a timber truss and steel lift-span bridge over the Murray River. The bridge is of technical significance for its sophisticated design and construction. It was the last of a series of bridges over the Murray River that incorporated central lift spans with innovative truss spans, which still operates today.
