Overview

Carlaminda is a quiet rural locality nestled just under a kilometre from the historic settlement of Rock Flat, south of Cooma in the Snowy Monaro region. The area sits beside the Monaro Highway, offering easy road access while retaining the charm of open countryside and the legacy of the former Rock Flat village, whose stone‑capped spring once supplied mineral water marketed as “Koomah Spa.” Residents enjoy the nearby natural scenery and the sense of history echoed by the remnants of the disused Bombala railway line and the old Rock Flat school and post office that served the community for decades.

Transport links are centred on the Monaro Highway, the main conduit for travel toward Cooma and beyond. Although the rail line closed in 1974, its former station site remains a point of local interest, and the proximity to the historic Cooma weather station (recorded as COOMA (CARLAMINDA)) provides reliable climate data for the area. The locality’s modest past mining of fire clay adds another layer to its rural character, making Carlaminda a blend of tranquil living and heritage‑rich surroundings.
