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.
Khancoban is beautifully landscaped with trees and parks and a superb rose garden. Overlooking a lake and central to many popular trout streams, Khancoban provides an ideal location for fishing, boating, white-water rafting, canoeing and water skiing or a relaxed game of golf with the kangaroos at the Khancoban Country Club.
Excellent picnicking and playground facilities are provided at the Khancoban Pondage as well as an easily accessible boat ramp. The Khancoban Pondage is fully stocked with Atlantic Salmon, Brown Trout and Rainbow Trout.
