About the shireLocal information that will interest newcomers, visitors and long-term residents. On the Southern outskirts of Sydney, Wollondilly is surrounded by spectacular natural beauty and rural pastures. Its 2,560 km2 stretch from Yanderra in the south and Appin and Menangle in the east, to Warragamba in the north and the Nattai Wilderness and Burragorang Valley in the west. The district is rich in Aboriginal and European history. A colourful tapestry interweaves the Dreamtime legends of the Gundangurra and Tharawal people on a backdrop of gorges, ranges and plains, with a rural patchwork created by the white settlers who followed the first fleet's famous staying cattle to the Cowpastures. Today, it is the lifestyle of the area that attracts visitors and Council is committed to a planned and balanced development that will maintain community values and lifestyle choices. This section of the Site has all the information you will need on the Shire itself: New Resident Information, Our History, Shire Maps, Stats & Facts, Tourism, Towns Within The Shire, and Wollondilly Lifestyle. You will find contact information for Hospitals and Health Centres, Schools, Post Officer, Public Transport, Local MPs and community groups in the Community Directory section of this page. | TOP | |
