About Ettamogah

Ettamogah is a small rural locality in the Riverina region of New South Wales, situated just north of Albury on the Hume Highway corridor near the Victorian border. With a population of around 92 residents across approximately 20 square kilometres, the locality is known throughout Australia for the famous Ettamogah Pub — a quirky attraction modelled on the fictional pub from Ken Maynard's cartoons in Australasian Post magazine. The locality's position near Albury-Wodonga gives residents access to a full range of services in one of regional NSW's larger twin-city centres.

The lifestyle around Ettamogah blends rural living with easy access to the Albury-Wodonga urban area, just a short drive to the south. The Ettamogah Pub was a major tourist drawcard for many years, bringing visitors from across Australia who had grown up reading the iconic cartoon. The broader Albury area offers excellent amenities including Albury Base Hospital, Charles Sturt University, a regional airport with flights to Sydney and Melbourne, and the Lake Hume recreation area. Ettamogah suits those who want a quieter setting with the convenience of a major regional centre nearby.

Ettamogah falls under postcode 2640 and is governed by the Albury Council (Local Government Area). For federal elections, residents vote in the electorate of Farrer, while state elections fall under the Albury electorate.
