Location Monaro Hwy.svg

The Monaro Highway[2] is a state highway in New South Wales,[3] the Australian Capital Territory and Victoria,[4] Australia. The Victorian section was formerly known as the Cann Valley Highway until the 1980s.

The highway traverses the Monaro region, hence the name. It starts at Canberra and runs south past Michelago and Bredbo to Cooma. It continues to Nimmitabel, Bombala and beyond crossing the Victorian border until it meets Princes Highway at the town of Cann River. The Monaro Highway runs for 286 kilometres and it forms part of the main road route from Sydney to the Snowy Mountains, and to Victoria's Gippsland region (an important freight route, as an alternative to the Princes Highway).

The Monaro Highway was allocated a National Route 23 shield. With Victoria's conversion to the newer alphanumeric system in the late 1990s, the Victorian section was altered to a B23 designation.
