City & Place Guide

Gateway to the outback skies and cotton country of NSW.

Narrabri is a regional town in northern New South Wales, situated at the foot of the Nandewar Range about 590 km north of Sydney. It serves as a hub for the surrounding agricultural district, particularly known for cotton farming, and offers a relaxed, friendly atmosphere typical of rural Australia.

The town is perhaps best known internationally as the home of CSIRO's Australia Telescope Compact Array, a world-class radio telescope facility that draws science enthusiasts from around the globe. Nearby Mount Kaputar National Park adds dramatic natural scenery, making Narrabri a surprisingly rewarding stop for both nature lovers and curious minds.

Getting around: Narrabri is best explored by car, as most attractions are spread out and public transport within town is limited. NSW TrainLink operates coach services connecting Narrabri to Moree, Tamworth, and Sydney. Local taxis are available, but rideshare services like Uber have very limited coverage, so hiring a car upon arrival is strongly recommended especially for visiting Mount Kaputar National Park.

Best time: Late April through October offers the most pleasant weather, with mild temperatures ideal for hiking and sightseeing before the intense summer heat sets in.

Local food: Try classic Australian pub meals at the local hotels and look out for fresh produce from surrounding farms, including seasonal vegetables and lamb from nearby stations.
