One of those must see sights whilst in Goulburn, There is the ability to climb up inside the Merino to look out of its eyes, which is great for stretching the legs before getting back into your car. There is also a gift shop attached, as well as many other places to grab a bite to eat.
Just stopped here for a quick photo with the big sheep. Plenty of room to park car + trailer. Didn't go into the shop and wasn't aware we could climb. However, we only really stopped for the photo. It was worth seeing.
Very Nice to take Photo with the Giant Sheep, Good stop over for petrol and rest for the trip from Sydney to Canberra.
This is just one of the things you have to stop at and take a photo of. Also there is a history section inside gift shop which was informative and the stair climb to look out of 2 little windows of the Big Merino
If you're planning to take a break on this stretch of highway then the Big Merino is something different. Popular for a photo opportunity next to it, and good views from inside.
There is no way you can possibly miss this "big" merino if you go anywhere near Goulburn! It is definitely an icon of Goulburn.
A visit to Goulburn would not be a proper visit without a trip to the big merino. All facilities you need and ample off street parking. Everyone photographs the front of the merino, but to be different, it has a rear end also. Just as quirky,
ICONIC A must to see.Something different & good variety of soveniers .Kids loved it & so did I.Great for that unique holiday photo.
A well presented tourist icon. Perfect for that cheesy photo. An interesting display about the wool industry & of course you can climb to the top to look through the sheep's eyes. The shop provides a good selection of quality woolen goods & souvenirs, though not all Australian made & certainly not cheap, as well as the usual cheap souvenirs found in these establishments.
This anatomically correct concrete sheep is as good a place to stop as any. But get the flock out of there before you get fleeced.
