Attractions
Wauchope perches prettily on the banks of the beautiful Hastings River in the Port Macquarie region of the NSW mid North Coast. Our tiny town is big on personality, luring visitors with everything from its delightful rural charm and friendly laid back locals to its intriguing heritage and surrounding wilderness.
Wauchope is also a motorcycle-friendly town, supporting riders along the Oxley Highway between Wauchope and Walcha through Cottan-Bimbang National Park. Map out a route to the ancient red bloodwood tree Old Bottlebutt, to Rawson Falls walk and Ellenborough Falls, one of the highest single-drop falls in the Southern Hemisphere.
Make a beeline for Bago Vineyards for fine wine, cheese and chocolate. The cellar door is a 15min drive southwest of Wauchope and close to Bago Bluff National Park. The vineyard is a great pit stop for families thanks to Bago Maze: tell your kids to get lost amid the 2km network of paths contained by a two-metre-high hedge.
Wauchope has a jam-packed events calendar: cruise on steamboats at Timbertown Steam Fair in July; squish grapes in barrels at the Grape Stomping Championships in February; undertake a farm gate tour in June; and attend a music festival in August. The monthly Wauchope Farmers' Market are also worth a look.
Wauchope is about four hours’ drive north of Sydney, 6hr 30min south of Brisbane and just 20min from Port Macquarie. Interstate trains stop at Wauchope Station and there are regular flights to the nearby Port Macquarie Airport.
