    About Bathurst

    Bathurst is located on the western slopes of the Great Dividing Range, 207 km west of Sydney. This gracious and historical town has grand heritage buildings, parklands and tree-lined streets. It's also home to Mount Panorama Motor Racing Circuit where two major endurance meets are held each year: the Bathurst 12 Hour and the Bathurst 1000.

    Things to do around Bathurst include seeing the amazing skeleton of a T-rex dinosaur at the Australian Fossil and Mineral Museum, viewing the extensive collection at Bathurst Regional Art Gallery or visiting the historic home of former prime minister, Ben Chifley.
