Hikes, Walking Tracks & Swimming Holes - Orange 360

Hikes, Walking Tracks & Swimming Holes

Explore the stunning landscapes of the Orange Region by foot or bike. This area is rich in native wildlife, like colourful rosellas, cheeky cockatoos, and playful kangaroos. Each season brings its own charm: think cherry blossoms in spring, sunny summer days, autumn colours, and cozy winter mornings.

Tackle the mountain trails on Mount Canobolas, where you can crunch through snow in winter and spot wombat tracks along the path. Check out the heritage trails for some self-guided tours that let you discover historic buildings and local folklore.

 

This loop track starts and finishes at Federal Falls campground, passing through snow gum forest and past gigantic rock faces on its way down to Federal Falls. If you’re there after the rain, you’ll be in for a pretty sight.

You can start the track at either the northern or southern end of the campground. If you want an easy return trip to the falls, it’s best to take the northern track there and back, and if you’re planning to hike the loop track, it’s recommended to walk in a clockwise direction; starting at the southern end as you’ll be heading downhill on the steeper sections.

Whichever way you choose to hike, you’ll be accompanied by a range of flora and fauna along the walk. See flag flowers and Australian pea flowers and notice the colourful butterflies as they flutter by. You might also hear the song of the grey currawong as you make your way towards Federal Falls.
