There are a number of National Parks around Port
Stephens, as well as in Port Stephens itself. Tomaree
National Park is a large National Park stretching over the southern
tip of Port Stephens. It is home to a host of plants and trees,
as well as being home to a large koala colony.
Further east towards the Hunter
Valley you'll come across the Goulburn National Park and
the Wollemi National Park leading north towards the Barrington
Tops National Park. The Goulburn National Park hosts vast sandstone
ranges where many Aboriginal cave art sites can be found. Barrington
Tops National Park offers rugged landscape stretching up towards
Mt Barrington and Careys Peak, at a height of nearly 1600 metres
above sea level. There are several walking trails through the
lower subtropical rainforest and Antarctic beech forest, which
are all well worth walking just to see the magnificent views.
North of Port Stephens is the Myall Lakes National
Park. This can be reached by car as well as by boat. You can hire
a boat at Nelson Bay and travel
across Port Stephens to the Myall River, which leads directly
into Myall Lake. The main settlement in the park is Bombah Point,
where you can take part in several water activities on the lake.
The National Park also offers some lovely beaches based around
Seal Rocks to the north, as well as spectacular rainforest walks
in Mungo Brush.
