Park information


Dharug National Park Check for park closures and fire bans

Named after the traditional custodians (the Darug People), this park has much history and some great sandstone formations. The wildflowers in spring add a wonderful touch of colour to the bushland. The Old Great North Road including its quarries, bridges and other features improves access and provides a great deal of interest for visitors. Close to Sydney and Gosford, it feels like stepping back in time when visiting this park.

Cost to drive a car into the park (if you do not have a valid pass)

$0

Camping is available in the park

$0 to $5

Public toilets are available in the park

Your site could do with a more detailed map of the campsite and surrounding walking tracks

Thanks Paul for the feedback.
It is a good idea and the directions we are heading. I hope in the next few months to make links between the campsites and walks in the area. We are still working our way through documenting areas so it will take time.
Hope you found some helpful information.
Matt :)
