Wyong, New South Wales

Once a timber town that was also a centre for dairy produce and citrus fruit, Wyong has become a popular tourist resort because of its close proximity to the beaches on the Central Coast.

There is plenty to entertain yourself with around the area itself. A trip through the lovely Yarramalong Valley will put you in the middle of delicate orchards, farms and a macadamia nut plantation.

The Alison Homestead is a treasure trove of historical curios, a miniature steam train tracks the prosperity Wyong gained after the railway from Sydney was built
