Named for the massive dome that looms above its woodlands, Bald Rock National Park near Tenterfield lays claim to the largest granite rock in Australia. Scaling the rock’s summit is the prized activity here, with several walking tracks that traverse around the base and up to the top, where views stretch all the way into neighboring Queensland. The Bald Rock Campground makes a convenient base camp and is within walking distance of the summit tracks and other bushwalks around granite gardens and gum forests.
Bald Rock National Park’s temperate climate makes it suited for camping almost any time of year, though temperatures occasionally dip below freezing in winter. Enjoy banksia, boronia, and other wildflowers dotting the landscape in spring, or take in the clearest views from the top of the dome during autumn’s crisp days.
