Sculptures In The Scrub Picnic Area And Campground
Deep in vast Pilliga Forest lies exquisite Dandry Gorge and the magnificent Sculptures in the Scrub. This once secret location of the Aboriginal Gamilaroi People is now an extraordinary place for all to share. Visit the sculptures to see five unique art pieces which reveal the cultural history of Pilliga.
Sculptures in the Scrub picnic area and campground in Timmallallie National Park is a great place to base yourself while exploring Timmallallie.
Whether you’re parking the caravan, pulling a camper trailer or pitching a tent, this roomy camping spot has space for them all. Set up your campsite and step out on the renowned Sculpture in the Scrub walking track. It’s also a great spot for a delicious lunch before or after a stroll around the art.
While you might glimpse a glossy black cockatoo or the elusive turquoise parrot, grey kangaroos, red-necked wallabies and lace monitors are often spotted along the walk. As the shadows grow long, settle in for a famous outback sunset and cook up a barbecue feast and wait for the overwhelming display of stars.
