47 kilometres southwest of Oberon is Burraga, a small community set in a rural landscape of sheep and cattle properties and pine forests.
In the late 1870s, when a large copper mine operated, Burraga was a bustling community of over 5000 people.
Today it is a gathering of houses with an operating sawmill and a Recreational Club.
For visitors, the old copper mine is a fascinating look into the past. Also worth a visit is the picnic area at the Burraga Dam.
Pure joy as you wake to the sunrise. Awe as you make it to the snowy peak. A sense of adventure as you motor across red plains. The relief of rejuvenation as you wade into an alpine stream. Connection as you taste native, fragrant leaves. A sense of belonging as you return to your favourite holiday house. Freedom as you dash into the waves. Discover the endless feelings a visit to NSW can inspire.
