Nymboida National Park
Nymboida National Park is the perfect place for keen adventurers. If camping in remote, unspoilt beauty surrounded by dramatic landforms neighbouring the beautiful Nymboida River sounds like your kind of getaway, point your 4WD towards Nymboida River campground.
Push your canoe out into the river, or take a summer dip while listening out for the distinctive chink of Bellbirds. There are no marked tracks, but experienced bushwalkers will love the wild beauty of Nymboida.
This is a quiet campground and you may well have the entire place to yourself. Even getting there is an adventure. Old Glen Innes-Grafton Road passes through a historic hand-cut tunnel into the stillness of the deserted valley.
Cast your imagination back in time and you may hear the snap of the reins on the Cobb & Co. coach team, the thud of the timber getter's axe, or the cry of the bullocky hauling down the track to the mighty Clarence River.
Beardy Waters, Dam & Woodlands
Beardy Waters, Dam and Woodlands is a great location to stop when travelling to or from Glen Innes Highlands, and is just a short drive from the main township for a recreational day out.
You can visit either side of Beardy Waters - the reserve on the right viewing the dam, and on the left viewing the river.
