Nowa Nowa - VIC

History, art and nature converge in this small pocket of East Gippsland – the township of Nowa Nowa – which is located on the Princes Highway between Lakes Entrance and Orbost. Once a stronghold of the local timber industry, the community is now home to several artists, who open their studios and galleries to visitors. Set at the junction of fresh water Boggy Creek and the tidal waters of Lake Tyers, Nowa Nowa is also a good place to enjoy the outdoors. Take one of the many sign-posted walks and discover the abundance of birds and other wildlife. Easy walking trails lead you to water or bush locales, including the 1.2 kilometre Sculpture Walk along the shores of the Nowa Nowa Arm and the 4.3 kilometre Rail Trail Ramble, which takes you to the historical trestle bridge, built to service the rail line in 1914.Nowa Nowa is approximately a 50 minute drive from Bairnsdale.
