About Gobarralong
Gobarralong is a small rural community in the central-eastern Riverina of New South Wales, located within the Cootamundra-Gundagai Regional Council area. It sits approximately 16 kilometres southeast of Coolac and 27 kilometres northwest of Adjungbilly, nestled in a scenic valley at around 199 metres elevation. The 2021 Census recorded a population of 63 people, reflecting its character as a quiet, tightly knit farming community.
The Gobarralong Valley is known for its pastoral beauty, with grazing properties and remnant bush framing a tranquil rural landscape. The area has a modest history — its post office, originally opened in 1876 as North Gobarralong, served the community until 1967. Today, residents rely on Coolac, Gundagai, or Cootamundra for services, making Gobarralong a retreat for those who value space, silence, and the slower pace of regional NSW life.
Gobarralong falls under postcode 2727 and is governed by the local council Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Cootamundra electorate.
