The closest town to Barrington Tops, make it your basecamp.

Beautifully located in its own valley and watched over by the rocky sentinels of the Buccan Buccans (the Bucketts Mountains), Gloucester is the closest town for adventures in the Gondwana rainforests of Barrington Tops.

Gloucester has been famously scenic since 1826 and is just a one hour drive from the Pacific Ocean coastline via the Bucketts Way. It’s one of the state’s oldest tourist drives, and for good reasons: short drives around the district take you to dramatic mountain ranges and picturesque valleys and rivers.
