NAMADGI NATIONAL PARK

Public BBQ

Namadgi National Park reveals itself as a fascinating blend of natural beauty and space-age history, where families gather for barbecues while contemplating humanity's reach for the stars. The Orroral Valley, with its remnants of the former NASA tracking station that once guided satellites and space shuttles, offers an unexpectedly poignant reminder of Australia's role in the space race. The valley itself exudes a remarkable tranquillity - visitors consistently mention the profound sense of peace that settles over them here. Kangaroos are practically guaranteed companions along the valley trails, adding that quintessentially Australian touch to any outing. The park caters beautifully to families with its well-maintained picnic tables, clean toilets, and barbecue facilities positioned conveniently near the car park. For those seeking more adventure, the Granite Tors walk presents a proper challenge with its relentless uphill climb, though the spectacular boulder formations and panoramic views justify every huffing step.
