The Bridle Track – Bathurst to Hill End

Natural Attractions

Enjoy an adventurous four-wheel driving trip, filled with opportunities for camping, fishing and exploration on the famous Bridle Track.

The Bridle Track was first established as the road between Bathurst and Hill End in the 1800s earning its name from the narrowest sections where hopeful gold miners and settlers had to lead their horses by the bridle. During the mid-1900s the track was expanded into a scenic tourist route along the Macquarie River.

Today the track is a popular four-wheel drive track with 13 campsites along its full length.
