Urana is a charming township, full of character, and a must-see when visiting the region North of the Murray. The rich farming land of Urana, between the Murrumbidgee River to the north and the Murray River to the south is an easy drive from several regional centres including Albury Wodonga and Wagga Wagga, and stone’s throw from Corowa and Mulwala.
Despite the name 'Urana' being derived from a local Aboriginal word ‘airana’, meaning a temporary shelter, the town has a long history, at one stage boasting two hotels, a post office, a telegraph station, two large stores, a police station and a church.
Come and enjoy Urana Shire...."In the middle of everywhere".
