Surrounded by the Yengo National Park and Watagan Mountains, the Wollombi Valley is the perfect location for enjoying the great outdoors! Bushwalking, bike riding, 4WD tracks and scenic drives are just some of the great outdoor activities available when you visit the Wollombi Valley! Or just relax at your accommodation watching the hundreds of wallabies and water birds that congregate around the many dams and water holes. Every season the local landscape turns it on with an ever-changing vista and explosion of colour. Autumn brings crisp days and changing reds, oranges and browns of the many deciduous trees. As Winter advances, the valleys are shrouded by morning mist, providing great photographic opportunities. Spring brings another colour change, as the wattles bloom with their bright yellow flowers. Finally, Summer heralds long days and cool nights, and the best time for the open-air symphonies provided by the many bird and nocturnal species that call Wollombi home!
