Newnes campground
No vehicle access! It's a long, roughly 10km walk to reach Newnes campground. The campground is walk-in only because Wolgan Road has collapsed and there's a landslip risk at Wolgan Gap. Wolgan Road was the only vehicle access into the valley and is managed by Lithgow Council.

Such an amazing campground. Local history is amazing. Blows your mind what people were capable of creating back then. Great spot mid week. I had the place to myself bar the wallaby’s, kangaroos, wombats and possums. Can’t wait to get back there.
I really really enjoyed this campsite. The views are spectacular and the amenities were well kept. There a few fire pits and picnic tables available. Some of the fire pits are missing the fire plates.... Read more
Great campground with small fire pits, tables and plenty of space. The stars are magnificent on a clear night and loved the hikes that were close by.

You can usually but there might be a fire ban when you go. Make sure to check before you plan your trip. I’d also bring my own firewood as the shop doesn’t always stock it. by Casey F.
