Warrumbungle National Park

Warrumbungle National Park, located in the Orana region of New South Wales, Australia, is a heritage listed park known for its natural beauty and unique geological features. Covering an area of 23,311 hectares (57,600 acres), the park attracts around 35,000 visitors annually.

It is named after the Warrumbungle Mountain Range and falls within the Pilliga Important Bird Area.

Access to the park can be gained through nearby towns such as Baradine, Coonabarabran, Coonamble, Gilgandra, Gulargambone, or Tooraweenah. There are two access roads leading to the park, one from the east via the John Renshaw Parkway (27 km or 17 mi), and another from the west via a 57 km (35 mi) long gravel road through Coonamble. The park is under the jurisdictions of Warrumbungle Shire, Gilgandra Shire, and Coonamble Shire.

The park offers stunning views of the Warrumbungle Mountains, which were formed by volcanic eruptions in the past. Landmark mountains such as Belougery Spire, Bluff Mountain, Mount Exmouth, The Breadknife, Split Rock, Fans Horizon, and Crater Bluff can be found within the park. Visitors can enjoy various outdoor activities including bushwalks, rock climbing, and abseiling. The park was once home to a population of koalas, but a fire in 2013 caused their extinction.
