West of Wauchope NSW
Follow the Oxley Highway west out of Wauchope. 1km beyond the Post Office, turn right on the Kempsey Road, crossing the Hastings River on the low level Bains Bridge. Keep left at the next intersection & turn right towards the Bellangry State Forest just before Beechwood. Proceed into the Bellangry State Forest along the Hastings Forest Highway to the 5 Way Intersection. From this point a diversion can be made down the Cobrabald Recreation Area to attractive picnic areas at Wild Bull Park, which offers open spaces and river swimming, & Bluff Park.

From 5 Ways, proceed along the Hastings Forest Highway to the Wilson River turnoff & descend 7km into the Wilson River Primitive Reserve which offers botanic walks through ancient rainforests at the headwater of the Wilson River.

Return directly along Hastings Forest Highway. Another diversion can be made to No.1 Fire Tower from where there are excellent views of the area. The sealed road only extends as far as Bellangry.
