Traveling Here
We're at the crossroads to everywhere: Sydney, Adelaide, Canberra, Melbourne... and the Outback!
Where the Hell is Hay? Hay is legendary within the colonial bush poetry of Banjo Paterson, and with good reason. Located on the vast Hay Plains, Hay is a vibrant and friendly town on the banks of the Murrumbidgee River and readily features magnificent sunsets and an expansive array of stars under an endless Outback sky.
Hay is located in the Riverina, NSW, at the intersection of three major highways: the Cobb, Sturt & Mid Western Highways.
