Guula Ngurra National Park

Guula Ngurra National Park is one of the newer national parks in New South Wales, in the Southern Highlands about an hour west of Moss Vale. == Understand == === History === === Landscape === === Flora and fauna === === Climate === === Visitor information === New South Wales National Parks and Wildlife Service website == Get in == As the national park is relatively new, there are no roads into the park – Tugalong Rd, the only road to the park, merely skirts on the park, but connects the important points of interests. The fire trails are for NPWS vehicles only. To get to the park, use the Illawarra Highway (A48)/Canyonleigh Rd exit from the Hume Hwy (M31) and head west on Canyonleigh Rd. After 11 km (6.8 mi), turn right onto Tugalong Rd and follow the road for 22 km (14 mi) until you arrive in the vicinity of the park. Tugalong Rd for the last few kilometres is unsealed (specifically past Old Coowong Rd); take extra precaution, especially during wet weather. 2WD vehicles can still use the unsealed road. == Fees and permits == There are three sections of the park – Little Forest, Mount Penang and Tugalong – the boundaries of which can be found at the park website. All three sections are free to access. The Little Forest and Mount Penang sections contain most points of interests and walking trails and is open at all times of the year. The Tugalong section, however, is only open during 8:30AM–5PM (visitors must enter prior to 2PM) and only on the 1st and 3rd Saturdays between March 1 and October 31. Visiting this section at any other times will require consultation with the NPWS. == Get around == == See and do == There are three walking trails in Guula Ngurra National Park, all of which are rated as Grade 5 trails.
