1 WOLGAN VALLEY

New South Wales

Where: Positioned in a small and remote valley along the Wolgan River near Lithgow in the NSW Central Tablelands, Wolgan Valley offers visitors a raw wilderness encounter just a three-hour drive from Sydney, 170km away.

Eat: Wolgan Valley’s seclusion is its drawcard, but the village of Blackheath is only 60km away. Head there to dine at Ates, a Mediterranean restaurant and wine bar regarded as the finest foodie experience in the Blue Mountains. atesblackheath.com
