Oberon Visitor Information Centre - Oberon

We always visit the local tourism office in a new town for handy information and tips. Oberon tourism namely Deborah was extremely helpful, knowledgeable and offered unbiased opinions on local attractions and camp site recommendations. It's always a pleasure to deal with people who are knowledgable and passionate about their job role. Totally recommend!!

Good selection of goods to purchase and the ladies were exceptional in helping us find areas for fossicking mushrooms.

The lady working here was incredibly friendly and helpful. She asked questions about my interests and suggested activities based on those. Having up to date details (the farm visit nearby, for example, has some newborn animals at the moment) added to the value.

The Oberon Visitors Information Centre is well worth a visit.Staff are friendly and knowledgeable. Debra provided some great local tips about fossicking and local wildlife. The office is able to provide a fossicking kit including shovel and pans etc for a hire fee of $20. The turn off from the main road onto the unsealed track to the Porters Retreat fossicking site when we went had some pretty big holes in it. This could have been challenging for regular city cars.Debra also mentioned that there were wild kangaroo mobs nearby in the bush area near the golf course and dam. We were lucky to see when we went. Let them know if you are interested in wildlife. Jenolan Caves and the majestic Kanangra – Boyd National Park are just a stones throw away and they can give you plenty of tips.Thanks!

Visited on a Saturday. Conveniently got a street parking spot out the front. We visited seeking information on mushroom picking in Oberon. The staff was more than happy to help us out, she circled some locations for us on a map and provided a lot of helpful information to aid us in identifying and picking the edible mushrooms. She also provided us with more information about the local town on the main street as well as some recommendations on where to eat.

Staff are very friendly and knowledgeable.Many brochures to look at.They also hire fossicking kits.

A lot of information through flyers and catalogs is available, even the staff is helpful.

Both ladies are wonderful & helpful. We had booked for Jenolan Caves but couldn't take our vans down so the ladies told us where we could park them reasonably safely. Then we visited Mayfield Gardens upon their suggestion. Amazing place, thankyou!!

Went to the visitor centre at about 4pm 25th March 2023. My wife and 2 kids went in to use the toilet and were told to go elsewhere by the lady working there, we were unfamiliar with the area and my wife had to go looking for a toilet with a 5 year old and 15 year old that urgently needed to go. Their was a toilet inside the visitor centre and the information we received online was it was open to visitors so not sure why they were sent elsewhere. I am following this up with the local council. Not happy with the service from the employee there.

Very helpful workers giving u info about mushroom picking and maps
