All about New South Wales

New South Wales covers an immense area of around 800,000 square kilometres in the southeast of the country. Although it is home to ever-popular attractions such as the world-famous opera house and the Sydney Harbour Bridge in the buzzing capital, travellers barely scratch the surface of everything the state has to offer. If you’re looking for beautiful beaches and epic surfing, bohemian Byron Bay and sweeping Bondi Beach are the most popular spots, with a whole host of other shores to choose from along the extensive coastline, including the 26 beaches at Port Stephens alone.

For awe-inspiring natural scenery, head to Blue Mountains National Park with its lookout points, waterfalls, and iconic sandstone rock formations like the Three Sisters in Katoomba. Wine lovers are drawn to the Hunter Valley for its more than 150 cellar doors pouring samples of the region’s famously bold Chardonnay and Shiraz. Back in Sydney, the state’s cultural centre, you’ll be greeted by theatres, museums, and galleries galore, along with major sporting and entertainment events from international cricket to open-air music festivals.

What are the top things to do in New South Wales?

Broken Hill

Discover the Outback of Australia in one of the oldest mining cities in the country, about a 13-hour drive from Sydney. You can learn about the history of the area at the Albert Kersten Mining and Mineral Museum and pay a visit to the base of the Royal Flying Doctors Service. This remote city may well feel familiar — it’s been used as a location for a raft of films of all genres.

Warrumbungle National Park

New South Wales boasts more than 870 national parks and reserves, but what makes Warrumbungle National Park special is that it is the only Dark Sky Park in Australia. The area has zero light pollution, so you can camp here and witness the stars against the background of the volcanic landscape.

New England

Located in the northern part of New South Wales, New England boasts dramatic scenery among its sloping hills, gorges, and waterfalls. The region tends to be cooler with an array of microclimates, and is home to some of the highest-elevation wineries in the country. Stop off at one of the many vineyards in the Hunter Valley to learn about its terroir.
