A Country Welcome in Coonamble
Coonamble Riverside Holiday Park has joined Kui Parks, offering travellers a warm and genuine outback escape in New South Wales. Set along the peaceful Castlereagh River, this newest Kui Parks location captures the charm of country NSW, wide-open skies, relaxing riverside views, and the simple pleasures of life away from the city.
Meet the Mayor Behind The Magic of Coonamble
We recently chatted with Coonamble Mayor Danny Keady about what makes this small outback town such a memorable stop for visitors.
A Town That Supports Its Locals
“Coonamble has a proud history and a welcoming spirit. Our community is built on local businesses, volunteer-run events, and agriculture,” said Mayor Keady.
A lifelong local and farmer himself, the Mayor says the town’s connection to the land, and to each other, runs deep.
“We see a lot of travellers on their way north or out west, and once they stop in Coonamble, they’re often surprised by the beauty of our river, our sunsets, and the big open skies. There’s something about this place that slows you down – in a good way.”
Since COVID-19, more caravanners and road-trippers have discovered Coonamble as a genuine outback destination.
“Tourism has become a big part of our story now. We’re proud that people come here, not just to pass through, but to stay, meet our locals, and experience our country community.”
A Riverside Retreat
Coonamble Riverside Holiday Park reflects that same welcoming spirit. Situated beneath shady trees with peaceful views of the Castlereagh River, it’s perfect for caravanners, campers, and travellers looking to unwind.
The park offers:
- Spacious powered and unpowered sites
- A premium two-bedroom self-contained accessible cabin
- A recently upgraded outdoor camp kitchen (refurbished in 2024)
Guests appreciate the relaxed atmosphere and friendly service. One recent reviewer shared:
“This was my second year camping at this park on our trip around NSW. The new camp kitchen with two gas BBQs was most appreciated and spotlessly clean. Tara went out of her way to make sure we knew where everything was and took the time to show us around. She is an absolute asset to the park.”
Gateway to Outback NSW
Coonamble is ideally located to explore some of NSW’s most spectacular landscapes, including:
Travellers can also take a day trip to Lightning Ridge, the black opal town, and follow the scenic Great Artesian Drive, linking the Coonamble, Gilgandra, and Warrumbungle Shires for a true country adventure.
More Than an Agricultural Town
Visitors can enjoy kayaking, fishing, or swimming along local rivers, or simply relax by the water. Upcoming local hot springs will enhance Coonamble’s appeal as a wellness and relaxation destination.
The town also comes alive during annual events, including:
- Coonamble Rodeo & Campdraft – the largest in the Southern Hemisphere
- Country Champions Race Meeting (March)
- Vision Splendid Music Festival (October long weekend)
- Coonamble Show (May)
