Dorrigo is a picturesque country town situated at the gateway of the world heritage listed Dorrigo National Park, 580 kilometres north of Sydney. Surrounded by lush green forests and spectacular country side, Dorrigo is the perfect base to explore the beautiful northern tablelands with its spectacular waterfalls and walking trails.
The village originally developed as a timber town after its settlement in the early 1900s, however dairying soon became the focus and now Dorrigo thrives on its agricultural and tourism industries. Visitors will find a welcoming, vibrant community with an artistic flair and an eclectic mix of shopping and activities. The Bielsdown River flowing through town offers excellent fishing with its abundance of trout.
Dorrigo Showground on Waterfall Way has RV parking for self contained vehicles for up to 96 hours. Sites are $20 per vehicle per night (unpowered), and pets on leads are permitted. Potable water is available at Waterfall Way adjacent to the showground, opposite the high school, and a free dump point is found 300 metres west on the corner of Waterfall Way and Oak Street.
