The Barraba Track
Walking or driving the Barraba Track is a unique and little known adventure experience. For spectacular scenic views of remote volcanic mountains, steep Barraba track offers mountain biking, walking, and a 4WD tour in Mount Kaputar National Park. This limited access track will inspire experienced mountain bikers and walkers as well as four-wheel drive enthusiasts.
Ascending the rocky track, stringybarks and blackbutts give way to majestic snow and mountain gums. You’ll pass lush ferns and grass trees before arriving at the summit, where you’ll glimpse the dramatic volcanic landscape of Mount Dowe and Lindsay Rock Tops, through the trees.
