Goulburn River National Park is one of those quiet inland landscapes that feels untouched and far from the coast, defined by long stretches of river, escarpments, and pockets of bushland that open out into wide, peaceful views. The drive in takes you through classic rural NSW scenery before the road drops toward the river flats, where the gums lean over the water and the sandstone cliffs glow warm in the afternoon light.

The park is full of small surprises — clear pools along the river, old stands of woodland, and tall rocky bluffs that catch the last of the sun. It’s a great place for a slow wander, a picnic by the water, or simply sitting beside the river listening to the breeze move through the trees. Wildlife is everywhere out here too, from kangaroos along the flats to birds moving between the cliffs and the river gums.
