In the midst of the wilderness you'll find camping sites in spectacular locations such as at Polblue camping area while a there's a range of accommodation, from rustic cottages and mountain retreats, in the surrounding area.

Many of the villages in the area, including Dungog, Gloucester and Paterson, were settled in the early 19th century and they still evoke the colourful history of the region, which included a vigorous timber industry, gold prospecting and ship-building.
