Kariong, Residential suburb in Central Coast, Australia

Located west of Gosford along the Central Coast Highway, Kariong extends across areas that include sections of Brisbane Water National Park and Mount Penang Parklands.

The Mount Penang Training School for Boys opened in 1911, establishing the first major institution in the area that was previously known as Kendall Heights.

The NAISDA Dance College in Mount Penang Parklands provides specialized performing arts education for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students from across Australia.

Busways operates regular services on routes 33 and 34 connecting Kariong to Gosford, while the M1 Pacific Motorway provides direct access to Sydney and Newcastle.

The area contains the Gosford Glyphs, a collection of 300 carvings on sandstone walls that were first documented in 1975 and resemble Egyptian hieroglyphs.
