Canberra Day Trips: Junee - a treasure trove for licorice and chocolate-lovers

Lorne Street in Junee. Photo: Wikimedia Commons .

Have you been to Junee? If you are a fan of chocolate or licorice, put it on your list of places to visit, because the magnificent Junee Licorice and Chocolate Factory is one of the town’s star attractions. But there are plenty of other ways to enjoy a day in Junee. Its beautifully preserved buildings dating back to the 1800s will delight history buffs while railway enthusiasts will enjoy the largest working railway roundhouse in the southern hemisphere. There’s an urban wetland teeming with plants and wildlife, you can explore a haunted house, and there’s lots more to discover too.

The medium-sized town of Junee sits in the Riverina region of NSW, around half an hour from Wagga. It was founded in the glory days of the government railways and these days, combines old-world charm with modern lifestyle. Junee’s economy is based on agriculture, rail transport, light industry and correctional services – it’s the location of Junee Correctional Centre.

Things to do

The entrance to Junee Chocolate and Licorice Factory. Photo: Facebook .

For a tasty adventure, visit the Junee Licorice and Chocolate Factory , the home of Green Grove Organics. The five-storey brick building it hard to miss. Sign up for a factory tour and see how licorice is made, and enjoy some tasty samples of chocolate as you go. There’s lots to see and an extensive shop if you want to stock up on some chocolately treats to take home. If you’re up for a more substantial meal, The Millroom has outdoor and indoor dining. They’re open for breakfast, lunch and coffee.

If you’re a thrill-seeker, brave the renowned haunted house at Monte Cristo Junee . It’s known as Australia’s most haunted house, so be prepared to be scared!

A great way to explore Junee is on foot. Grab some info from the Junee Visitor Information Centre . You’ll find it in the Broadway Museum , which is a heritage-listed pub built in 1914. There are interesting discoveries about the railways, the bushranger era and the discovery of gold waiting to be made. Here’s some more information about the self-guided Junee Heritage Tours . There’s a café in the museum for when you’re finished walking.

Take a short drive out of town and explore the natural beauty of Bethungra Dam and Sandy Beach Reserve, both great spots for camping if you’d like to extend your stay.

Getting there

Junee’s Broadway Hotel has a history dating back to 1914. Photo: Denisbin .

From Canberra, take the Barton Highway to its intersection with the Hume Highway near Yass . Continue until Gundagai , where you’ll see signs to Olympic Way and Junee.

• Plan your visit to coincide with festivals and events such as the Junee Poker Run and Blues night, Junee Rhythm n Rail Festival, Riverina Schoolboys Football Carnival, Illabo Country Music Stampede, or the Bethungra Markets.
• The Junee Farmers Market is held on the second Sunday of the month
• The annual Junee Rhythm ‘n’ Rail Festival in March celebrates the railway heritage as well as local wines and produce, with steam train rides, live music and activities for the whole family, from carnival rides to heritage trains to vintage cars.

Key details

• Duration: 2.5 hours via the Hume Highway and Olympic Highway
• Distance from Canberra: 222 km each way
• Recommended for: Junee happily combines a taste of yesteryear with its modern lifestyle and culture. Visit Junee to explore a rich history in rail, gold and bushrangers
• More information: Visit NSW: Junee

Our number one favourite thing to do in Junee is to visit the chocolate and liquorice factory. Do you know of any other foodie locations we should visit in the region?

Winery & Robin Rowe Chocolate Factory Tour

Event description.

Lake George Winery

Lake George Winery was established in 1971, and is home to a suite of crafted cool-climate wines on the north-western shores of the spectacularly unique Lake George in the Southern Tablelands of New South Wales. Located 30 minutes from Canberra, Lake George Winery provides an idyllic retreat to indulge in the cool-climate air and fine wine.

Lake George Winery’s shale based soils consist of alluvial outwash from the nearby Cullarin Range, and loose gravel embankments created over millennia by the wave action of Lake George. The vineyard has an optimal easterly aspect, and late afternoon sea breezes moderate heat during the growing season. Lake George Winery’s wines are made with minimal interference, allowing full expression of the character of the vineyard.

Robin Rowe Chocolate

Having earned many awards and accolades for the fine chocolates and beautiful visitor experience, after almost 20 years in business, in 2021, Robyn Rowe retired from her craft, she created Local chocolatier Yasmin Coe, purchased the business with her husband, Alistair, and they are excited to continue this beautiful chocolate tradition, whilst being a part of the Murrumbateman community.

Graycliff The Art of Chocolate and Factory Tour

A perfect educational experience for the entire family. Enter the world of chocolate and learn about the chocolate-making process from bean to bar.

Your chocolate journey begins with the history of its Bahamas home then you’ll explore the factory and learn how cocoa beans become scrumptious candy – from being roasted and ground into cocoa nibs, stone ground into liquid chocolate then poured into sculpted moulds. Finally, you’ll enter our classroom where you will create your own chocolate bar and other treats.

Classes daily at 9:45am; 1:00pm and 3:00pm.

Chocolate & Spirits Pairing

For adults only, entice your taste buds as you travel on a delicious journey and learn the art of artisanal chocolate production and why certain chocolates taste better with particular spirits. Then savour a variety of fine chocolates produced in the Graycliff Chocolatier factory paired with premium spirits: rum, whiskey, port and more.

Imagine a sip of fine rum paired with a creamy chocolate which presents notes of buttery vanilla goodness or a whiskey matched with a Bahamian-fruit flavoured chocolate that titillates the taste buds.
