New South Wales
This area of Australia is fertile and well populated (by Australian standards). Beautiful beaches, temperate rainforest, the world heritage listed Blue Mountains & of course the fabulous city of Sydney all make up the area where Captain Cook first landed.
Beyond the maze of escarpments and gorges making up the Blue Mountains lie miles of undulating bushland, which are today known as the central tablelands. These rich pastoral lands are best explored by week-long safari and a stay on a private sheep or cattle station. The area is home to a multitude of wildlife from kangaroos and wombats to possums and platypus, while the spectacular coastline harbours whales, dolphin, seal and penguin colonies.
