Description

Bago Bluff National Park, located in New South Wales, Australia, is a natural escape that is sure to quench the thirst of nature lovers.

It is situated approximately 410 km northeast of Sydney, southwest of Wauchope, in close proximity to the former Broken Bago State Forest and a segment of the Lorne State Forest. The northern section of Bago Bluff National Park encompasses the old Bago Bluff Flora Reserve and Six B Flora Reserve, making it a sprawling parkland of 3,477 hectares.

Bago Bluff National Park's star attraction is its spectacular views of the Hastings Valley from the top of the bluff. You can access the top via several forest roads from the south, including Bago Road. The captivating and picturesque scenery from the top is worth the climb. The park also has several hiking trails that visitors can take to explore the serene beauty of the park.

Quarries in Bago Bluff National Park have previously produced an array of leaf and shell fossils. Visitors interested in geology and paleontology will undoubtedly find these ancient remnants fascinating.

Bago Bluff National Park's isolation has encouraged nesting birds to take advantage of the area, making it a prime destination for birdwatchers. Some of the birds that can be spotted include Australian magpies (Gymnorhina tibicen), golden whistlers (Pachycephala pectoralis), green-winged pigeons, grey fantails (Rhipidura), kookaburras (genus Dacelo), large-billed scrubwrens (Sericornis magnirostris), spotted pardalotes (Pardalotus punctatus), pied curraw
