Welcome to Barrington Tops

Come and visit the unique World Heritage Listed Barrington Tops just three hours north of Sydney, Australia!

Covering more than 95,000 hectares of unspoilt wilderness, this is a must-see destination with an almost mystical reputation. There’s sparkling streams, waterfalls, lush rainforest canopies, the call of the wilderness… and much more

In winter the landscape transforms into crisp, cold winter days or low cloud and mist reflecting on an ancient world. During snowfalls, Barrington Tops become shrouded in white as the forests and sub-alpine grasses capture the snowfall.

In summer the majestic Antarctic beech forests provides respite from the heat and temperature are some ten degrees cooler than the valley. Adventure seekers can explore The Tops by hiking, mountain bike, trail bike, motorcross or 4WD.

Escaping does not mean “doing it tough”. Accommodation ranges from 4 ½ star and eco resorts to cabins, bed and breakfasts, caravans and camping.

The Barrington Tops will bring you a little closer to heaven… and will make you want to come back again…. and again.
