Tucked in the picturesque Wollombi Valley, Rocky Forest Bush Retreat offers a memorable escape into nature. Whether you’re looking to unwind, hike through lush bushland, explore striking rock features, or immerse yourself in native flora and fauna, our property promises peace and beauty. As a secluded, off-the-grid destination, Rocky Forest doesn’t have a traditional street address—so be ready for a bit of adventure finding us! Full directions will be provided upon booking, with fun landmarks to look out for along the way. The property is just 15 minutes from the Wollombi Tavern, and the gorgeous scenic drive adds to the experience. Please note: if we’re not expecting you, the gates will be locked, let us know your arrival time. This is a 4WD & AWD access property only & is monitored by CCTV. The property is home to a variety of native wildlife, including kangaroos, wombats, echidnas, koalas, and even rare quolls. Wombats can be noisy at night, so don’t be alarmed! Birdwatchers can look for the critically endangered Regent Honeyeater, and see resident king parrots, lyre birds, kookaburras, and black cockatoos Explore nearby caves and rock features, hike the fire trail for stunning views, or take on local 4WD tracks. We are only a short drive away from the Historical township of Wollombi, The Finchley Aboriginal Area- a culturally significant site rich in Indigenous history, and the Hunter Valley Vineyards, Distilleries and incredible restaurants- all less than an hour awayOur camping area offers space for tents, rooftops, camper trailers, or caravans, with room for groups of up to 15-20 people. The site is still developing, with plans for an outdoor kitchen and communal firepit coming soon. In the meantime, we have a self-contained cabin available for campers to use. It includes a gas kitchen, hot shower, flushing toilet, and solar-powered electricity for device charging. While we ask that it not be used for overnight stays, it’s perfect for your daily needs. A small fridge is also available for use. The campsite and cabin overlook a seasonal creek with stunning rock features, making it ideal for nature lovers, birdwatchers, and those seeking tranquillity. Guests are welcome to explore the entire property, and Ben and Jaz are happy to guide you to special spots.

Main Campground & Cabin
Jaz and Ben were incredibly welcoming and helpful. The land is lovely, and the cabin was really helpful for us as it was raining all weekend, so it was nice to have a break from the rain and have the ability to cook inside. Bush walking from the site was great, it's an incredible area. The AWD in the group was fine getting in and out, but we foolishly had some 2WD cars which struggled a lot. I would only recommend AWD or 4WD (this was our own fault, as we didn't read the description properly). Overall, it's a great place for groups as there is plenty of space and is very beautiful.
