What’s cooking on your school holiday campfire this weekend?

Put yourself in Nature at Barrington Tops. Packrafts are small, lightweight inflatable rafts that can fit inside your pack so they’re easy to take anywhere. They’re as much fun to paddle as mountain bikes are to ride, so go for a spin around Barrington Tops & finish with an easy downstream paddle. :-) Photo on the Barrington River by @bencirulis www.barringtontopstourism.com.au #barringtontops #barringtonriver #backtonature #weekendadventures #packrafting #packraft

The weekend is coming, where will it take you? How about a no blacktop trip at Barrington Tops, isn’t it time you got muddy again? :-) Photo by @alastairwadlow www.barringtontopstourism.com.au #barringtontops #theweekendadventure #backtonature #roadtrip #4wdaustralia #noblacktop

Midweek inspiration: The Mountaineer-Glowang Trail in Gloucester Tops is a challenging walk with spectacular views across pristine wilderness.

Extraordinary nature in Barrington Tops: purring frogs & changing colour for sex. The Eastern Stony Creek Frog (Litoria wilcoxii) is found in Barrington Tops & the males turn a bright yellow during mating season. And instead of croaks, males call with a very soft purring. The species is threatened by habitat loss especially spawning areas, so take care around our waterways & watch out for the purring frog seducing its partner with a costume change. :-) This photo in Barrington Tops by @albertpomeroy www.barringtontopstourism.com.au #barringtontops #backtonature #wildernessculture #frogs #frogsofinstagram #nswparks #nswstateforests

Sun’s out, fun’s out. Did you know that cows are affectionate & love to be stroked & scratched behind the ears? They’re also considered generally intelligent… but we’ve never seen one that could stay upright in a rubber ring. ;-) Photo at the Barrington River by @twistopsretreatbackpackers www.barringtontopstourism.com.au #barringtontops #barringtonriver #cowlove #happycows

Summer is still here, do you need a change from the beach?

Gold medal for sure... How's your weekend going, have you found your favourite spot yet?

Put yourself in Nature at Barrington Tops. Make like a tree fern & greet the sun! The high moist valleys of Barrington Tops are perfect habitat for the tree fern 'Dicksonia antarctica' which provide a handy home or shelter for delicate epiphyte ferns, rare orchids & mosses…. an extraordinary micro community under each fern. :-) This happy face is @catseyestyle www.barringtontopstourism.com.au #barringtontops #backtonature #wildernessculture #barringtontopsnationalpark #gondwanaland #nswparks #nswstateforests #treefern #treeferns #treefernforest
