Wadbilliga National Park, Nature reserve in New South Wales, Australia.
Wadbilliga National Park is a nature reserve in New South Wales with extensive gorges, rolling plateaus, and granite cliffs. The terrain transitions from high escarpments down to coastal plains, creating a landscape with varied elevations and rock formations.
The park received its protected status in 1979 as an IUCN wilderness area designated for natural conservation. This recognition marked an important moment in safeguarding the natural environment of the region.
The territory protects three major river systems that flow through the region and sustain the communities living nearby. Local people have long depended on these waterways for their connection to the land.
Two campgrounds offer basic facilities for visitors wishing to stay overnight within the park. The varied terrain with gorges and escarpments requires careful planning for hiking routes and appropriate preparation.
The park is home to more than 120 native bird species, each adapted to different elevations and habitats within the reserve. Rare plants such as Deua Gum and the small shrub Kunzea badjaensis grow nowhere else and make this site scientifically valuable.
