Surburb overview

Holder is a sleepy suburb located in the District of Weston Creek. It is bounded by John Gorton Drive to the north, Dixon Drive to the east, Streeton Drive to the west and Hindmarsh Drive to the south. Established in 1970, the suburb was named in honour of Australian politician Sir Frederick William Holder, who served as the premier of South Australia for two separate terms.

Things to do in Holder

Holder is home to the seventh stopover for the Woden heritage track — the Weston Homestead, which is located in Calder Crescent. The site used to be private property and was originally part of the acreage given to Captain George Weston before it changed hands in 1937.

The De Salis family were the next owners of the homestead. The De Salis family erected a homestead on the property and cultivated a farm on it. It was slowly reclaimed by the government in the 1960s when Canberra began its rapid expansion. Today, only the trees planted by the De Salis family stand.

Holder faces a breathtaking panoramic view of Mount Stromlo, which is a short drive away from the suburb and also happens to be a stone’s throw away from the city centre. Winter playground Corin Forest Mountain Resort, a ski resort that’s popularising night skiing, is also a 45-minute drive away.
