Goulburn River National Park
Goulburn River National Park is situated on 69,434 hectares, 35 kilometres south of Merriwa, west of Muswellbrook and north of Mudgee. It is located approximately 300 kilometres from Sydney. It extends along approximately 90 kilometres of the Goulburn River as it winds between sandstone cliffs honeycombed with caves, providing unusually easy access to a variety of recreational opportunities. The wide, sandy riverbanks offer easy walking and spectacular camping sites.
The park contains a unique and varied mixture of eastern and western plants as well as providing an invaluable refuge for fauna amongst the heavily cleared and cultivated lands. You are likely to see wombats, eastern grey kangaroos, emus and a variety of birds. The diversity of plant communities and the number of rare and threatened species highlights the value of this national park.
There are camp sites and picnic areas available - picnic site at Lees Pinch, and camping at Spring Gully on the Goulburn River.
The park is a popular place for remote bushwalking and it is advisable to carry your own water on any walks where your route deviates substantially away from the river. All water from the river should be boiled.
