Canyonleigh 8928-4N Topographic Map 1:25,000

Detailed NSW Topographic Mapping | Canyonleigh, Bangadilly National Park & Southern Highlands | Paper, Waterproof Tyvek® & Laminated

🌿 Explore the Sandstone Highlands and Rural Landscapes of Canyonleigh

Discover the rugged sandstone country, forested valleys and peaceful rural landscapes of the Southern Highlands of New South Wales with the Canyonleigh 8928-4N Topographic Map, sourced from the official NSW Spatial Services Topographic Map Series.

Covering Canyonleigh and its surrounding countryside west of Moss Vale, this detailed map provides valuable geographical information for bushwalkers, rural landowners, environmental professionals, surveyors, engineers, land managers and emergency services.

The Canyonleigh district occupies a distinctive landscape where rolling grazing country and rural properties give way to forested sandstone ridges, deeply incised gullies and remote river valleys.

The region forms part of the western Wingecarribee Shire, an area characterised by extensive natural bushland, historic pastoral properties and the dramatic river systems of the Southern Highlands.

Among its most significant natural features are the Wollondilly River and lower Wingecarribee River catchments, whose waterways have carved steep valleys through the surrounding sandstone country.

Nearby, Bangadilly National Park protects substantial areas of native forest and rugged sandstone terrain. Its walking opportunities and relatively undeveloped landscapes make it particularly interesting for experienced bushwalkers, birdwatchers and naturalists.

The surrounding countryside includes rural landscapes associated with Canyonleigh Road, Tugalong Road, Uringalla and the forested country towards Penrose and Wingello.

The district is especially rewarding for those interested in understanding the relationship between sandstone geology, natural drainage systems, agricultural land and protected bushland.

The contrast between accessible rural roads and secluded forested valleys makes detailed topographic mapping valuable for identifying ridgelines, interpreting slopes and understanding the terrain before travelling.

At a scale of 1:25,000 (1cm = 250 metres), the map provides detailed geographical information through contour lines, waterways, roads, tracks, vegetation, rural buildings and natural landforms.

Whether you're exploring Canyonleigh's bushland, examining rural property, studying the Wingecarribee catchment or undertaking professional fieldwork, this topographic map provides an excellent geographical reference.

Professionally printed by Mapworld and available in paper, waterproof DuPont™ Tyvek® and laminated finishes.
