The famous sandstone Hampden Bridge, built in the 1890's, is Australia's oldest suspension bridge and is a most impressive and attractive structure

In the Kangaroo Valley township itself you'll find a selection of country style shops including antique, craft and confectionery outlets.

A range of fine eating is available at the local restaurants and cafes. Kangaroo Valley is home to an orchard based tourist attraction which is fascinating to young and older. A pioneer farm museum also welcomes visitors.
