Tarlo River National Park, National park in Upper Lachlan Shire, Australia.
Tarlo River National Park is a protected area across the Southern Tablelands that covers diverse landscapes at different elevations. The park is traversed by a river that flows year-round and connects varied vegetation types and open spaces.
The park was established in 1982 to protect the river landscape and its natural systems. This decision was part of a broader effort to safeguard the region's water resources.
Aboriginal peoples have deep ties to this land and their traditions remain woven into the landscape today. Visitors can sense this cultural significance throughout the park as they move through different areas.
The park can be accessed via Towrang Road on its southern side near Greenwich Park. Vehicle access is restricted to certain designated zones, so plan routes accordingly.
The river descends from higher regions and eventually joins another river near a mountain in the landscape. This connection shows how the region's water systems are linked together.
