Rathdowney, Mt Barney & Surrounds

The last stop before entering dense hinterland, Rathdowney is a blink and you’ll miss it town. So don’t blink! With plenty of local history and small town character, stopping in for a meal or the night is a must. It’s also the perfect place to base yourself for a weekend exploring the area.

Camping and hiking are what Mt. Barney and Mt. Lindesay were made for. As part of the Gondwana Rainforests of Australia World Heritage Area, the area is bursting with native flora and fauna, so keep your eyes peeled for the local wildlife as you explore rainforest, waterfalls and caves.
