Located approximately 30 kilometres north west of Boggabri on the Kamilaroi Highway, Baan Baa had early beginnings as a squatting run.
Little remains of this previously bustling railway village which once boasted its own bakery, two general stores, a stock and station agent, butchery, an ice cream shop, a hotel, two churches and a service station.
Only the Baan Baa Railway Hotel now stands in what is now primarily a grain terminal, feeding in from the rich grain country surroundings. Consequently, the sleepy town of Baan Baa starts to buzz during grain harvest.
When in Baan Baa, don’t miss the new War Memorial, next to the Hall opposite the popular Baan Baa Railway Hotel where you can call in for a cold drink or delicious meal, open for lunch and dinner.
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.
