Life in Tumut

A business, and a lifestyle.

Tumut sits in the foothills of the Snowy Mountains and has a population 6,800 people.

The outdoors on your doorstep

Trout fishing on the Tumut River. Mountain biking through Kosciuszko National Park. Skiing at Selwyn in winter. Kayaking, camping, and swimming holes in summer. Tumut is an active town, and the people who live here dress for it. A reliable outdoor and fashion retailer is not a luxury here — it is a necessity.

A community that shows up

Weddings, funerals, the races, school formals, Saturday sport. Tumut gets dressed for life. Stevensons has been part of that fabric since 1953 — fitting locals for the moments that matter. That kind of loyalty does not transfer to an online checkout.

A town that knows how to celebrate

The Festival of the Falling Leaf has been running since 1954. Every autumn, thousands descend on Tumut for the street parade, live music, cider tastings, and market stalls. It is the single biggest trading weekend of the year for local retailers — and a reminder that this town punches well above its weight.

Grown here, loved here

The Tumut region is apple and pear country. Local cider from The Apple Thief, cool-climate wines from nearby Tumbarumba, stone fruit from the valley. People here care about provenance and quality — in what they eat, what they drink, and what they wear.

Slow down. You are in Tumut.

The river is five minutes from the main street. The mountains are visible from every backyard. The commute is a ten-minute drive or a walk through town. People move here because they want a life with room to breathe — and they stay because they find it.

A town on the rise

Regional Australia is growing, and Tumut is part of that story. Families priced out of Sydney and Canberra are discovering what locals have always known: you can have a good life here. New residents mean new customers, and a fashion retailer on the main street is one of the first places they walk into.
