Information

Highlights Secluded, rugged wilderness and scenic river systems support large plant and animal populations in this park. Lookouts and waterfalls are accessible to picnickers and campers, and experienced walkers can delve into remote bush.
Activities The park offers scope for long, hard hikes and backpack camping along the river. There are good views from lookouts on Misty Creek Road and Chaelundi Road, and you can have a picnic beside Ebor Falls, where the Guy Fawkes River plunges off the tablelands. There's car-based camping and access to easy walking tracks at Chaelundi rest area (with accessible campsite and toilets), as well as car-based camping at historic Dalmorton near the Boyd River - ideal for camper trailers and small caravans.
Access 60 km north-west of Dorrigo off the Armidale-Grafton road (includes unsealed roads). Take Sheep Station Creek Road (unsealed) at Dundurrabin or Marengo Road (mostly unsealed) from Hernani, on the Armidale-Grafton road. Access to Dalmorton from the Old Grafton-Glen Innes road (2WD unsealed).
