A Place of Beauty

Aboriginal for ‘shallow river crossing’, Bingara is nestled on the Gwydir River in the New England area of northwest New South Wales. Bingara is at the heart of the Fossickers Way, a picturesque route that offers a quiet alternative to the New England or Newell Highways.

The beauty of our natural geography, the history and heritage of the area, the friendliness of our people and the exciting and diverse range of things to do will encourage you to extend your visit and return, again and again.

Not only is Bingara the perfect place to visit if you are contemplating an inland holiday, it is a wonderful location in which to settle permanently for those considering a 'tree change’.

June to August has cold frosty nights and sunny days, while November through to January boasts a dry heat with little humidity. “Take away our twenty or so hot summer days in the high 30’s, and twenty or so cold ‘n’ bleak winter days around 5, and you are left with 320 beautiful days every year.
