Walk in the footsteps of Australia's most infamous outlaw with the Ned Kelly Touring Route – Benalla.
This self-guided journey takes you to the key sites where Ned Kelly and his gang left their mark in and around Benalla, the very heart of Kelly country. From historic courtrooms and hideouts to authentic Kelly-era artifacts, you'll uncover the stories that shaped a legend.
For true Kelly enthusiasts, a full day exploring the district offers rich insight into bushranger history—alongside the chance to enjoy Benalla's excellent local food and wine. Short on time? The clearly marked route can also be enjoyed in a morning or afternoon.
Highlights include Benalla Cemetery, were Joe Byrne has been laid to rest, Benalla Courthouse, where his fate was sealed and The Costume and Kelly Museum, home to his famed green sash, awarded after he saved a boy from drowning.
