Fertile river flats spread out on either side of it. The rainfall, most of which falls in the winter between June and September, virtually ensures that the valley is green and fertile for most of the year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Lombardy Populars in Tumut NSW<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the town&#8217;s most distinctive features are the handsome stands of Lombardy poplars. The original row, and therefore the oldest, is the run of poplars located over the pedestrian bridge below All Saints Anglican Church. These trees were planted in 1861 and are particularly impressive in autumn. In recent times a number of other rows of poplars have been planted (one on the Tumut Plains Road, two on the Brungle Road) ensuring that the valley turns golden in autumn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Exploring Historic Tumut<\/strong> <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"563\" data-src=\"https:\/\/countryairstrips.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/TumutCourthouseNSW-1024x563.jpg\" alt=\"Tumut Court House.
