Welcome to Your Outback Oasis
Discover the perfect blend of natural beauty and country hospitality at the Nyngan Riverside Tourist Park. Nestled directly on the tranquil banks of the iconic Bogan River, this park serves as an idyllic gateway to the expansive New South Wales Outback. Whether you are a weary traveller seeking a peaceful overnight stopover on the Barrier Highway or a family looking for a base to explore the rich history of the Bogan Shire, our park offers a refreshing sanctuary away from the road noise.
Nyngan Riverside Tourist Park is renowned for its spacious, grassy sites and shady trees, providing a cool retreat during the warmer months. We pride ourselves on offering accommodation options to suit every style of travel. From fully self-contained cabins that offer a touch of luxury to expansive drive-through powered sites designed to accommodate the largest of caravans and motorhomes, comfort is guaranteed. The park’s layout ensures that even when busy, you maintain a sense of privacy and connection with the natural surroundings.
Guests can immerse themselves in the local environment right from their doorstep. The river offers excellent opportunities for fishing and birdwatching, while the nearby town centre of Nyngan—home to the famous “Big Bogan”—is just a short distance away, allowing for easy access to local pubs, cafes, and museums. With clean amenities, pet-friendly policies, and a relaxed atmosphere, Nyngan Riverside Tourist Park is more than just a place to sleep; it is a genuine country experience where the sunsets are spectacular, and the welcome is always warm.
