The Narrabri Crossing Theatre hosts a variety of events that the town turns out for, such as children’s holiday programs, knitting clubs, DIY workshops of varying nature and other energetic activities.
Journey outside the town to encounter some of the incredible natural wonders in the area. Pilliga National Park offers stunning scenery and secluded campgrounds, and within the park lies the Sandstone Caves, an important and spectacular Aboriginal landmark. A guided tour will allow you to learn more about the caves’ cultural significance and view the ancient engravings that have stood the test of time.
A short drive from town you’ll also find Gin’s Leap and Dripping Rock. Dripping Rock is well hidden, so make sure you have a map handy to help you out. The Narrabri Visitor Information Centre can provide more information on these iconic locations, including the tragic tale behind the naming of Gin’s Leap.
Nearby, the Australia Telescope is located within the Paul Wild Observatory and will unlock the secrets of the sky for you. This is a great place for kids to learn more about the universe through informative displays.
