  • 🌍 Old Bemboka Butter Factory, 2712 Snowy Mountains Hwy, ☏ +61 414 313 539, . Daily 9AM–8PM. A factory formerly run by a family estate back when this region was far more agricultural and industrial. The factory has since been preserved, and is perhaps the last remianing sign of the area's timey past. (updated May 2024)

Other than the old butter factory, the SE Forest National Park and Wadbilliga National Park are both relatively nearby.
