About Wollombi |
Wollombi is a small village in the Hunter Region of New South Wales, Australia.
Within the Cessnock City Council LGA it is situated 29 kilometres southwest of Cessnock and 128 km north of Sydney.
To the south is Laguna, to the east, Millfield and to the north, Broke.
The valley is bordered to the west by the World Heritage listed Yengo National Park (and Yengo State Forest) and the main road, the convict-built Great North Road forms one of the major legs of the Greater Blue Mountains Drive. To the east are the Watagans National Park along with Corrabare and Olney State Forests.
Wollombi's modest modern size is offset by its 19th century sandstone buildings and timber slab constructed cottages and sheds in a narrow valley junction containing Wollombi Brook and Congewai Creek. Narone and Yango Creeks also join these waterways near the village.
The area is home to an abundance of native birds, reptiles and other animals including kangaroos, wallabies, and wombats surrounded by imposing tree-lined mountains.
