View on location map

Address: Gwydir Highway
Glen Innes, NSW 2370

A rainforest wilderness for the imagination, of forest piled on forest seething with sounds and yet silent. Giant buttressed tree trunks, like gothic columns, standing seemingly motionless and softly dappled. The world of water whirling pools and dancing creeks fall in sparkling curves on their journeys toward the ocean. The wonder of Washpool is spread out over an area of 65, 779 hectares.

In Washpool National Park, access to Coachwood picnic area, Bellbird and Coombadjha rest areas is provided by Coombadjha road which leaves the Gwydir Highway 75 kilometres east form Glen Innes. Picnic facilities and a lookout are also provided at the Granites picnic area. Walking tracks commence from Coachwood picnic area and Coombadjha rest area. Access for wilderness walking is via Moogem Road which branches off Coombadjha Road just before the facility areas. Pitt toilets, camping and barbecue sites are available at Washpool National Park.
