Just half an hour from the Hume Highway at Gundagai and 20 minutes east of Adelong, Tumut has a range of pet friendly accommodation venues.

Located on the Tumut River, Tumut boasts many heritage listed buildings and sites and is the headquarters for the Snowy Mountains Scheme. Due to the town featuring a number of autumn trees such as poplars, willows and elms, the display of colours during autumn is simply outstanding and this has brought about the annual Falling Leaf Festival. The area around Tumut is well known for its pine plantations.
