Oolambeyan National Park

The 22,231-hectare national park features grasslands and woodlands where galahs and kangaroos roam freely across the natural landscape.

The New South Wales Government established Oolambeyan National Park in November 2001 after purchasing the Oolambeyan Station, a former merino stud grazing property.

The park protects traditional landscapes of the Riverina region, maintaining natural habitats for native wildlife including carpet snakes and monitor lizards.

Visitors can access the park via Oolambeyan Road, turning from Sturt Highway onto Carrathool-Conargo Road and following the unsealed Gum Creek Road.

Rainbow bee-eaters migrate through the park during spring, while superb parrots gather in cypress pines and boree woodlands during winter months.
