The Culgoa National Park is a protected national park that is located in the north-west region of New South Wales, in eastern Australia. The 35,239-hectare (87,080-acre) national park is located approximately 660 kilometres (410 mi) northwest of Sydney. The nearest town is Brewarrina, 120 kilometres (75 mi) away. The park's northern boundary is defined by part of the state border between New South Wales and Queensland.
The Culgoa River flows through the national park.
The spirit of the history and culture of the Aboriginal people, who mostly worked as colonial pastoralists, can be felt here.[2] The whole area of the park is full of relics of the pastoral and grazing industry of that time.[3]
