What’s special about Hill End: In the early 1870’s rich gold discoveries rapidly turned Hill End from a small rural community into one of the largest inland towns in NSW. Today it provides us with the opportunity to explore what it was like to live and work in a major commercial centre in the late 1800’s.

Walk: Bald Hill Track, starting at the caravan Park and up and over the hill, which gives you a wonderful view. Be careful don’t fall into mineshafts. Once down the hill we will meet up with those who want a relaxing easy stroll and discover the village. We can walk/drive up to Split Rock and have lunch??
