We’re setting out for an unforgettable adventure at Yadboro, where we’ll be camping under the stars surrounded by nature’s tranquility. Our journey doesn’t stop there; we’ll be hiking to the breathtaking Byangee Mountains, a trail known for its challenging climbs and stunning panoramic views. The plan is to set up camp on the first day, enjoy a night of camaraderie around the campfire and have BBQ, and rise early to conquer the rugged terrain of Byangee.
Please have a good look at the plan below and let us know if you have any questions.
Don’t forget to read Sydhikers disclaimer here.

Car pooling is done separately. Cars will start from Sydney around 10AM, hoping to reach at the Yadboro Flats Campground at least 2 hours before its dark so that we can set up camps in the light.
Set up camps
Park here and set up the camps as soon as possible so we can start doing other activities after it and the camps are set up before its dark.
