About New South Wales

NSW is called the premier state, and is the most populated of all Australia’s states. The majority of people live in Sydney, the city built around the ‘finest natural harbour in the world.’

The heart of Sydney is Port Jackson. Walk along the shoreline, start at the Art Gallery, go through the Botanical Gardens and past the Opera House till you reach the historic Rocks district, then go under the Harbour Bridge to Pyrmont and Darling Harbour. Or alternatively, you can catch a ferry at Circular Quay to one of 39 different wharves including Taronga Park Zoo, or up the river to Parramatta. At night, you can take the Evening Lights Harbour Cruise, or test your nerve climbing the Harbour Bridge.

North of Sydney is the Central Coast, which has been a popular holiday destination for Sydneysider since the 1880’s.

Further north, the town of Newcastle has had an Arts revival. The Newcastle Regional Gallery now has the most substantial public collection outside the major cities.

Inland are the Hunter Valley, famous as a winemaking district, and Australia’s country music capital, Tamworth.

North Coastal Port Macquarie, and Coffs Harbour are both famous holiday destinations, and right in the middle of them is the Hat Head National Park, said to be the best vantage point on the coast for viewing migrating whales. Stop in Grafton one October for the jacaranda Festival, perhaps on your way to the resort town of Byron Bay. Just inland from Byron is Mt Warning National Park, and if you’re after the Age of Aquarius, Nimbin is the place to be.

If you prefer the mountains, then the Blue Mountains National Park offers a string of pretty villages, and some great bushwalking. Stop in Katoomba to admire the Three Sisters, or ride the Scenic Railway, or continue on to Jenolan Caves.

Alternatively, you could visit the Snowy Mountains, walk the Alpine way or ski Thredbo.

When people refer to the back of Bourke, they mean in the hot breath of Australia’s interior. Go beyond your comfort zone, to the moonscape of Mungo National park, Lightning Ridge with its opals and hot bore spas, or detour to Broken hill and Silverton, an abandoned mining town often used as a film set.

The NSW south coast is called ‘the Sapphire Coast.’ It starts at Wollongong, and winds downwards, through the picturesque beachside towns like Kiama, known for its blow-hole, right down to Eden.

Just inland from Kiama are the southern Highlands and Kangaroo Valley, including Bowral, Berrima and MossVale.
