Tumbarumba via Elliott Way - Khancoban
One of the best day trips is the route through the mountains from
Tumbarumba to Khancoban via Cabramurra. The views are impressive and you
will get a very good look at the Snowy Mountains Scheme. From Tumbarumba
take the Tooma Road south to the Elliott Way, which takes you through part
of Maragle State Forest and stands of magnificent Mountain Ash.
The road climbs steeply down to the Tumut River valley, giving tantalizing
glimpses of Talbingo Reservoir, until it reaches O'Hare's Rest Area. From
here you will cross the river 5 times before
the steep climb up to Cabramurra.
Food and fuel are available at Cabramurra General Store and at Khancoban.
