Bulahdelah
Bulahdelah has a name that says it must be interesting but water lovers should keep on going. It is, however, an excellent base for bushwalkers wanting to explore the Myall Lakes or State forests. Bulahdelah is situated at about 120 kilometres north of Newcastle on the mid-north coast of NSW. Bulahdelah means “meeting of the waters� in the regions Aboriginal language. Near to the western gateway to the magical Myall Lakes National Park which conserves 10,500 hectares and is one of the state’s largest coastal lake systems. The area is protected by a mix of eucalyptus, palms and littoral rainforest, the lakes attract hordes of boaties, sailors, campers and bushwalkers throughout the year. The region was first opened up by cedar-getters and Bulahdelah’s Plough Inn was an important staging post on the Cobb & Co routes. The region’s colourful past is reflected in the museum collection which is housed in the impressive old court house.
