Mount Kaputar National Park
Mount Kaputar National Park consists of a gathering of sharp peaks and rocky ranges, the remnants of a 17 million year old volcano. Millions of years of erosion have carved this volcanic pile into the Nandewar Range, with its dramatic landscape of lava terraces, volcanic plugs and ring dykes. At the peak of the range is Mt Kaputar, which reaches an altitude of 1510 metres. From the summit it’s possible to take in 360 degree views encompassing one tenth of New South Wales.
With 11 walks available (most offering spectacular views), the National Park is popular with rockclimbers.
The park protects a wide variety of plant communities. Wildflowers in spring provide a magnificent display. It's home to many animal species, and provides a haven for many threatened species - including bats, birds, wallabies, quolls and a unique large pink slug, which often appears after rain.
