Urunga Boardwalk

They are excited to announce that a section of the Boardwalk is open! 200 metres of the new boardwalk is open, with one viewing platform to enjoy.

In 2026 this section of the boardwalk will remain open with intermittent closures required to move equipment to the areas that are still being built.

The Urunga Boardwalk has to be one of the best boardwalks on the east coast, with spectacular views from the entire length of the boardwalk.

Starting from the charming town of Urunga, the boardwalk passes along the banks of the Kalang River, to the junction with the Bellinger River and out to the ocean, with stunning views inland past Urunga town and up the river valleys to the Great Dividing Range, north across the rivers to Mylestom Spit and south along the beach to Picket Hill and beyond to Nambucca Heads.

There are numerous rest areas with seating, as well as many interpretive signs along the boardwalk pointing out items of interest and telling the history of the area.

The boardwalk leads you to the the leash free pet friendly beach area to the south of the river mouth.
