Cunnawarra National Park

World Heritage-listed Cunnawarra National Park, 70km from both Armidale and Dorrigo, is a great place for 4WD touring, hiking, camping and birdwatching.

Experience the diversity of rural NSW at beautiful Cunnawarra National Park, which links the snow gum high country of New England National Park with the scenic ranges of Oxley Wild Rivers National Park.

The park is part of the Gondwana Rainforests of Australia World Heritage Area, and features many incredible vistas to explore on foot, by bike, or in a 4WD. Marvel at the spectacular gorges, cliff lines, and deep, steep-sided valleys of the Great Escarpment, towering eucalypt forest along Styx Forest Way, and ancient Antarctic beech rainforest at the headwaters of Georges Creek. Be sure to check out the view from Beech lookout, where you can gaze down upon some of the tallest trees in all of NSW.

Cunnawarra is popular with travellers seeking a good one-day 4WD touring adventure from Armidale or Dorrigo, as well as campers on their way to nearby Wattle Flat campground in Styx River State Forest. Both Wattle Flat and Georges Junction offer campgrounds that make a good base from which to enjoy quiet forest drives through the remote ranges around the park.
