Welcome to Yerranderie, a perfect destination for the whole family. Enjoy the excitement of travelling along bush roads, spot the native animals and glimpse occasional views of the Burragorang Valley . Camp or stay in our accommodation, then spend days exploring the area. We are surrounded by the Blue Mountains National Park World Heritage Area and our old Silver mines. Try bushwalking, fossicking, photography or just enjoy the peace with the kangaroos and other locals. Inspect the town on an informative tour or use our brochures to self guide yourself. We have an entrance fee of $6.00 for adults and $3.00 for children under 12 years.

Yerranderie Village a Ghost Town

It is set in an Historic Silver Mining area, listed on the register of the National Estate and in a large private sanctuary abounding with mobs of grey forrester kangaroos, wombats, wallabies, walleroos and mountain birds in natural bushland. It is the hub of a scenic walking area adjacent to the wilderness.  Now managed by NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service so leave your pets and firearms at home.
