"Bairnsdale" Bairnsdale by Jarra

Bairnsdale, the western gateway to the Lakes and Wilderness region of East Gippsland, still retains the quiet country pace and fresh air that you don't get in a bigger city. Not quite city, not quite country. On the banks of the Mitchell River, Bairnsdale manages to retain a unique atmosphere as the commercial and administrative hub of the region. Bairnsdale is situated along the banks of the magnificent Mitchell River, 285 kms east of Melbourne on the Princes Highway.
