    About Barrington Tops

    Rising sharply from the surrounding valleys, Barrington Tops is a 25 km-long plateau, set among a series of extinct volcanoes and surrounded by more than 20 valleys. This world of streams, waterfalls, forests and soaring cliffs is a spectacular wilderness, famous for its subtropical rainforest and Antarctic beech forests.

    You’ll find plenty of ways to explore this wilderness. There are short interesting walks, through rainforest and tall blue gums; wheelchair access is provided at Devils Hole lookout and Williams River picnic area. Car-based camping is available at various locations. Access is from Gloucester, Dungog and Scone.
