Culcairn is around 53km's from Albury or around 30 minutes travel time.

Culcairn is one of those truly great country towns, featuring picturesque parks and tree-lined streets. Culcairn has a rich history and many buildings in the main shopping area are classified by the National Trust. Culcairn was established because of the 1880 extension of the railway from Wagga Wagga to Albury. The restored Stationmasters residence and the Culcairn Hotel reflect the railway expansion at that time.

The Culcairn Hotel was built in 1891, and for many years was the largest hotel between Melbourne and Sydney. These days, the Culcairn Hotel is a magnificent old-style building, offering modern facilities as well as home-style accommodation. The gardens at the back of the building are very pleasant.

Culcairn is the home town of equestrian Andrew Hoy who has represented Australia at five Olympic Games winning medals in the Equestrian Three Day Events at Barcelona, Atlanta and Sydney.
