Overlooking the mighty Clarence River, the small village of Ashby offers scenic views and a monthly market.

Held on the third Sunday of every month, the markets provide local, homegrown produce from local farmers and is the perfect location for a quiet Sunday browse.

Drive carefully through these country roads and watch for the friendly local wildlife that can be spotted road side. We are talking about you Roos!

Enjoy a picnic on its riverbank and see the mighty hills of Maclean in the distance.

Ashby provides a great view of The Broadwater, a stretch of shallow water with a deeper channel towards its eastern bank that is accessible to smaller yachts and tinnies. Sitting near the entrance is the hulk of an old sugar cane barge.

A gorgeous drive if you’re heading out for a casual day out and want to explore more of the Clarence Valley.
