Budawang-Nationalpark

The Budawang National Park is a national park in the southeast of the Australian state of New South Wales, 200 km south of Sydney and about 65 kilometers east of Canberra. The Kings Highway makes its southern boundary dar. In the north, beyond the Yadboro River, a tributary of the River Clyde, the State Wildlife Park Budawang Wilderness Area closes at, in the east of Bimberamala National Park. Both the National Park as well as the eponymous Wilderness Area include some of Budawang Range, a mountain country in the area of the coastal mountains of New South Wales.

The area was colonized in 1820. In the park, there are still remnants of an old sawmill. The subsequent coastal region was colonized because of its poor accessibility until 1890.

The highest point is Mount Budawang which grants a good view of the entire mountain range, the river system of the Clyde River and the coastline in the distance.

The park is only accessible via non paved roads, best of the west on the access road Braidwood - Mongarlowe - Nerriga - Nowra. In the park there are no facilities for tourists. In particular, it is important when hiking on the adequate transportation of drinking water and food.
