Located only 20 minutes from Mudgee, the Pioneer Museum is a great sprawling place filled with all kinds of bric-a-brac. Walk through the museum’s cottage while the kids can spy old toy cards, vintage children’s bedrooms, kitchens, farming equipment and clothing all from the Gold Rush in the 1870s. The labyrinth of cottages open up to a huge warehouse full of old modes of transport, including coaches and carts.
