Visit Cooma
Cooma
is the most genuinely multi-cultural rural town in Australia.
Originally settled in 1823 it is the largest town
in the Snowy Mountains and remains the headquarters of Snowy
Hydro.
The Mosaic Time Walk in Centennial Park depicts
life in the Snowy Mountains from its origins through to the present
time – a truly magnificent achievement that is testimony to
Australia’s pioneering spirit.
The International Avenue of Flags also located in
the park contains the flags of the nations represented by the
men and women who worked on the Snowy Mountains Scheme.
A statue
of the famous ‘Man from Snowy River’ immortalises Banjo
Paterson’s mountain man.
