sydney to bowral drive time Page 30

Sydney to Bowral is a breezy run of about 120 km down the M31 Hume Motorway, so think roughly 1.5 to 2 hours in normal traffic.

Leave in peak hour and you’ll add 30–45 minutes plus a few new grey hairs; leave early and you might arrive before your coffee order is spelt wrong.

The route is simple: M1/M5 to the Hume, then exit toward Mittagong/Bowral—mostly 110 km/h, easing as you near the Southern Highlands.

Quick stop? Pheasants Nest has fuel, loos, and enough pies to power a small nation.
