Information

The North Gundagai Rest Area is better known as the place "where the dog sits on the tucker box five miles from Gundagai". Eight kilometres just doesn't have the same ring to it. The statue of the dog was opened in 1932 and has been a popular rest stop since that time. The area hosts a roadhouse service station and a cafe and souvenir shop at the dog on the tucker box. There are toilets and picnic facilities as well.
