THE town of Eden in the far south of NSW is an idyllic spot with an amazing history of whaling and logging. It’s also the local centre for a string of stunning national parks all worth visiting for their enticing beaches, plentiful fishing and glorious walking tracks.
Even the hills outside of Eden are filled with history, and in this episode we venture to an old cattlemens’ hut and an inn that once provided a watering hole between the port on the coast and the goldfields of Kiandra.
It’s an area worth breaking away from the tourist crowds to explore, with exciting four-wheel drive routes, fast-flowing rivers and scenic lookouts to be found.
Ron, Matt and the team take the little convoy through the lush forests and to the beaches, to complete their tour of south-east New South Wales, and they plan to come back again sometime. It’s a corner of Australia often overlooked, but come here once and you’ll be planning your next visit.
