Dunns Swamp
Australia / Rylstone, New South Wales
Location ID: #15595
This is the largest wilderness area in NSW and forms part of the Greater Blue Mountains World Heritage Area — a maze of canyons, cliffs and undisturbed forest. Situated on the western border of the Wollemi National Park, 25km east of Rylestone, Dunns Swamp was created in the 1920s when a section of the Cudgegong River was dammed to provide a reliable water supply for the Kandos cement works. The area was originally known as Kandos Weir and was gazetted as part of the World Heritage Wollemi National Park in 1990. Dunns Swamp is 20 km from Rylstone along Narrango Road.
