How to Reach Goulburn, Australia

Goulburn by Road:

Goulburn is located just off the Hume Highway, approximately 90km from Canberra and 195km from Sydney. From Canberra, take the Federal Highway (Northbourne Ave) and then the Hume Highway North. From Sydney, take the M5 Motorway and then the Hume Highway. There are two exits to Goulburn from the freeway. An alternative, and more scenic route from Canberra is to take the Kings Highway east to Bungendore, then follow Tarago and Braidwood Roads north into the city. This route is slightly longer than the freeway and takes just under 2 hours. If coming from the Blue Mountains, Bathurst or the Central West, a quicker way to get to Goulburn than to drive through Sydney is to drive to Oberon and take the Taralga Road which comes into Goulburn from the north.

Goulburn by Train:

Countrylink [3] runs 4-5 train services per day from Central Station in Sydney to Goulburn on the way to Melbourne and Canberra (from $28 one-way). A train from Sydney will take just over two and a half hours to reach Goulburn. Goulburn's historic railway station is located in the centre of town on Sloane Street in the centre of town. Countrylink trains need to be booked in advance. CityRail [4] also run local trains to and from Goulburn on their Southern Highlands Line. Unfortunately the Government cut the local day trains some years ago and services are geared more around getting travellers from Goulburn to and from Sydney, meaning that unless you plan on travelling when the commuters do, you will need to catch a bus and be prepared to spend up to 4.5 hours with two train connections and a bus to get there. The upside is that tickets are cheap ($8.20 adult/$4.20 child one way) and CityRail's MyMulti3 tickets can be used on the Goulburn services. Take note that most Southern Highlands Line services don't travel into Sydney, for most you will need to catch a suburban train to Campbelltown Station on Sydney's outskirts and change to a Southern Highlands Line train there.
