Location
Closer than you think
Googong township will be situated on a 780 hectare site just 16km south-east of Parliament House in Canberra, and less than 4km south-east of Jerrabomberra.
The site is located on the Old Cooma Road in NSW adjacent to the Googong Dam and is just a 20-minute drive from the centre of Canberra. Access to Canberra will be via Jerrabomberra on the extended Edwin Land Parkway. The proposed road linkages, improvements to the access along Old Cooma Road, and proximity to Canberra and Queanbeyan, make Googong well placed to support future forecast growth for the region.

The picturesque site was originally grazing land and is characterised by gently undulating slopes and plains, and dominated by the dramatic mountain backdrop of the Molonglo Ranges.
