Gundabooka National Park
Gundabooka National Park covers an area of 43,000 hectares. The main feature of the park's landscape is the Gundabooka Range, which rises to a height of 500 metres at Mount Gundabooka.
From the summit of the Gundabooka range there are extensive views of the wide open plains typical of north west New South Wales. The rust coloured rocks that can be seen on the rugged surface of the cliffs, gorges and hills are over 385 million years old.
Gundabooka National Park is of great cultural significance to the Ngemba Aboriginal people. Certain places in the range were used as venues for large ceremonial gatherings. Paintings have been found under several overhangs, which highlight many aspects of the Ngemba culture. They include hand stencils, lively pictures of dancers, animals and other motifs.
Access to the park is by dry weather roads only and visitors need to contact the National Parks office in Cobar or Bourke before visiting.
