The Hume and Hovell Track is an epic trail in the southeast of NSW that traverses rugged and beautiful countryside following a mix of public roads, fire trails, purpose-built single track, and over 100 footbridges. The track stretches 426km and passes through the towns of Yass, Wee Jasper, and Albury and nearby the towns of Tumut, Talbingo, and Tumbarumba offering a variety of topographies, vegetation types and land uses, as well as numerous points of historic interest. Along the way, there are 17 campsites, picnic facilities, numerous boardwalks, and three major bridges over significant rivers.
