The location of the Kapooka Army Recruit Training Base, Royal Australian Air Force Base and Charles Sturt University means that there’s strong demand for cheap flights to Wagga Wagga all year long.
There’s also great demand from the fans of the elite sportsmen and sportswomen who have been inducted into the Sporting Hall of Fame. So great is Wagga Wagga’s sporting prowess that it is known as the City of Good Sports and a term – the Wagga Effect – has been coined to explain how the town (and regional towns like it) has produced such an impressive honour roll of athletes.
Wagga Wagga is the largest inland city in New South Wales and capital of the Riverina region. It’s a pleasant city, situated on the banks of the Murrumbidgee River. Along with lush parks and gardens, museums (Riverina and RAAF) and galleries, it even has a beach, with a wave that rushes along at five o’clock each day. Museums and galleries are plentiful. The RAAF Museum tells the story of Air Force history, the Wagga Wagga Art Gallery is a public art space and the Australian Pen Museum is the country’s only museum dedicated to writing implements.
It’s also a great launchpad for further exploration around the Riverina. The Snowy Mountains lie east of Wagga Wagga, Griffith, the wine-producing region, lies to the west.
The Riverina region is known as the pump-house of the state’s wine industry. Charles Sturt University’s wine school and the Ron Potter Research Centre are based here and there are plenty of cellar doors that you can visit to pick up some goodies.
The climate is temperate with four distinct seasons. Winters are cold with temperatures dropping to the single digits while summertime temperatures can soar to 32 degrees.
A car is essential if you’re going to explore the Riverina area. Busabout Wagga Wagga services operate throughout the city area with extensions to Estella and Forest Hill.
Once the flight arrives at Wagga Wagga Airport (WGA), there are several rental-car companies. Airport shuttle buses and taxis are available too. A taxi ride into Wagga Wagga takes about 15 minutes.
