Barrington Tops National Park Walks
Barrington Top National Parks, Southern Gateway, Gloucester, NSW
Travel Guide - This rugged park is full of contrasts. Carved out of an ancient volcano, Barrington Tops National Park rises from near sea level to over 1500 metres. In the lower valleys, you'll find World Heritage-listed subtropical rainforests. Up on the plateau, there is subalpine woodland which regularly sees snow in winter. Most of the area is declared wilderness, and it's a well known destination for bushwalkers. But the park is accessible even to those with limited mobility. Its excellent track network extends from short, easy walks to steep overnight treks. The varied environments are home to a wide range of plants and animals, and it protects more than 50 rare or threatened species. Thanks for visiting Travel Guide
