Barrington Tops, Chichester Dam, Chichester Forest

Enjoy the scenic countryside driving through the settlement of Bandon Grove, stopping at Chichester Dam to take in the tranquil surroundings of Lake Chichester. Continuing onto Jerusalem Creek in the World Heritage-listed Barrington Tops National Park, to enjoy the scenic views, waterfalls and birdwatching of this pristine area. Further along through the Chichester Forest you will find a small, open air museum of old logging machinery, an excellent reminder of how logging equipment and practices have advanced over time. Returning via the undulating hillsides and across the Williams River along the Fosterton Loop. This round trip from Dungog, could include unsealed roads, hence two-wheel-drive vehicles with reasonable ground clearance would be suitable for the trip, except in wet weather.
