Getting There
The closest major city is Canberra, a 2 hour drive away along the Barton and Hume Highway. From Sydney the drive is about 4.5 hours south west, also along the Hume Highway.

Extending Your Australian Working Holiday Visa
Many harvest jobs will meet the Second Australian Working Holiday Visa eligibility and count towards the 88 days of specified work. Some regional locations and jobs are ineligible which could lead to the Department of Immigration rejecting your application. So remember to confirm whether or not your fruit picking or harvest job will count towards the Second Australian WHV.
