Barakee is a national park in New South Wales, Australia, 257 km north of Sydney. It is connected to Barakee State Conservation Area.
Description
The park and conservation area form an ecological corridor from the Manning River floodplain to the Great Dividing Range, linking diverse habitats. It also supports several threatened animal species.[2]
Barakee is remote, and therefore doesn't have large numbers of visitors, but it provides a natural experience. Camping, swimming and fishing are possible in the park. Visitors can hike or drive four-wheel vehicles.[2]
Fires of 2019-2020
The fires that took place in 2019/2020 left scars on some parts of the park. So many parts are closed to visitors, to give the habitat time to recover and to renew the infrastructure.[3]
