Palerang is situated within the Capital Region of New South Wales.

The new Council was proclaimed on 11 February 2004. Its local government area includes the towns of Braidwood, Bungendore and Captains Flat and the outlying villages of Araluen, Majors Creek, Mongarlowe and Nerriga. It also includes the areas of Wamboin, Burra, Bywong, Hoskinstown, and parts of Sutton, Royalla and Carwoola.

Palerang Council extends to Lake George in the north, the Tallaganda State Forest in the south, Queanbeyan City to the west and the Morton and Budawang National Parks to the east.

The name Palerang Council is taken from Mt Palerang, one of the highest points in the new Council's area.

Its residents enjoy a rural lifestyle, with principal industries being beef and sheep production, stone fruit orchards, vineyards and emerging new ventures such as alpacas, lavender and berries. There is also a large and thriving artistic community comprising writers, poets, film-makers, musicians, specialty craftspeople and many more.
