Majura Training Area, Military training facility in Australian Capital Territory, Australia.
Majura Training Area is a military facility in the Australian Capital Territory featuring specialized shooting ranges and exercise grounds. It contains a 600-meter marksmanship range, pistol ranges, and areas designated for artillery practice.
The site was originally established as a military training ground and gained expanded purpose in 2005 when the Australian Federal Police opened an international training center for peacekeeping operations. This development transformed it into a hub for regional security training.
Military personnel from Pacific Island nations participate in training programs at the facility, strengthening regional defense partnerships.
The location is easily accessible near Canberra and provides basic facilities including administrative buildings and accommodation for training participants. Visitors should check conditions in advance as access may be restricted and security protocols apply.
The grounds contain an 18-building compound designed to replicate an overseas township, allowing soldiers to train in realistic scenarios. This module provides hands-on practice under conditions that simulate actual operations.
