Khancoban
The picturesque town of Khancoban is nestled in the foothills of the western face of the Snowy Mountains.
The township was originally built to accommodate workers and their families during the construction of the Snowy Mountains Scheme.
It is beautifully landscaped with trees and parks and a superb rose garden. Overlooking a lake and central to many popular trout streams, it provides an ideal location for fishing, boating, whitewater rafting, canoeing and waterskiing or a relaxed game of golf with the kangaroos at the Khancoban Country Club.
Excellent picnicking and playground facilities are provided at the easily accessible boat ramp.
