Boonoo Boonoo National Park

Absolutely worth the visit, even if you're coming from far. The scenery is fantastic, the walks can be as long or as short as you want, and you're always near this picturesque river and the incredible waterfall.

Only 27km from Tenterfield, Boonoo Boonoo National Park has a stunning waterfall, secluded swimming holes, hiking tracks, camping areas, accommodation and picnic spots.After Banjo Patterson proposed to his sweetheart, Alice Walker, at Boonoo Boonoo Falls lookout, there was movement at Tenterfield cattle station. Word had passed around that the station owner’s daughter had got away. Presumably she loved the guy, but it’s possible that his charming choice of setting in which to pop the question might have helped sway her answer. Alice didn’t have a chance and she and Banjo married in 1903.Today, Boonoo Boonoo (pronounced bunna-bunoo) is still the ultimate romantic setting, especially after a good rainfall. From the lookout is an uninterrupted view of the Boonoo Boonoo River cascading over the granite cliff edge to become a spectacular waterfall that plunges 210m into the gorge below. Nearby, you’ll find walking tracks and shady places to picnic. Secluded rock pools along the river, lined by wildflower-filled bushland, are the perfect way to cool off on a hot day.

A perfect place for families through to experienced hikers. Plenty of tracks for everyone. As a family we did a few of the smaller ones. A very short walk out to the top of the falls and the same distance to the rock pools! Both definitely worth the look!Plenty of shade and tables around to sit. A few long drop toilets placed around, but not well maintained.Also remember being a NSW park you will need to pay to enter so having cash with you is helpful or you can use an app!

Astonishing views of waterfalls. Rock pools to swim in. The road trip from Stanthorpe was scenic and easy. Good camping area.

Great view of the falls and mountains, very scenic drive into the park

Am amazingly beautiful part of the world and only a short drive from Tenterfield. Also great camping and swimming holes. The dirt track is easy going and approx 14 kilometers (8 mi).

Great swimming and walking tracks, outdated info on site. Stayed at Cypress camp ground , booked on line to find an absent tent owner camped on our site. Moved to another vacant one but meant that the person who booked it on line came looking for it. Worked out okay because they were not booked out.

Glorious part of the world. River flowing, waterfall falling, morning mist and the National Park to ourselves. 35 klms. from Tenterfield NSW Australia

Great place to visit if you're around Tenterfield. Easy walk and spectacular scenery. Good facilities for a stopover, rest or picnic.

Well worth the drive in from Tenterfield, picnic area and toilets are well maintained. Spectacular views down through the gorge and waterfalls cascading down the side. There is a large pool at the top that you can swim in tho we did not as it was cold a a little discoloured from all the recent rains and bushfires in the area. Still well worth it for a drive and a sausage on the BBQ.
