🏞️ Explore the Granite Highlands and Historic Landscapes of Tenterfield

Discover the spectacular granite mountains, forested ridgelines and historic rural landscapes of the New South Wales Northern Tablelands with the Tenterfield 9339-4N Topographic Map, sourced from the official NSW Spatial Services Topographic Map Series.

Covering Tenterfield and its surrounding highland countryside, this detailed map provides valuable geographical information for bushwalkers, rural landowners, environmental professionals, surveyors, engineers, conservation managers and emergency services.

The Tenterfield district occupies a distinctive landscape within the New England Tablelands, where ancient granite formations, rolling grazing country and wooded hills create an intricate geographical setting.

The map provides geographical coverage relevant to Tenterfield, Mount Mackenzie, Doctors Nose Mountain, Currys Gap and surrounding rural catchments, with Bald Rock, Boonoo Boonoo National Park and the Queensland border providing important regional context.

The historic town of Tenterfield stands approximately 850 metres above sea level, surrounded by granite hills and open pastoral country. Its heritage streetscape and rural surroundings reflect the district's long association with grazing, transport and the development of northern New South Wales.

Tenterfield Creek flows through the district, forming part of the local drainage network associated with the wider Mole River catchment. Its tributaries create a landscape of gentle valleys, farm dams and wooded slopes.

Southwest of town, Mount Mackenzie rises to approximately 1,258 metres, making it one of the most prominent geographical landmarks in the Tenterfield district.

The mountain's exposed granite formations, rocky slopes and scenic lookout provide spectacular views across Tenterfield and the surrounding Northern Tablelands.

Mount Mackenzie Nature Reserve protects 141 hectares of high-elevation native forest, including important woodland communities and habitats for threatened species.

Nearby, Doctors Nose Mountain Nature Reserve protects 66 hectares of forested granite country. The distinctive rocky formation known as Doctors Nose rises above the surrounding grazing landscape.

At the base of Mount Mackenzie, Currys Gap State Conservation Area protects another 227 hectares of native woodland, contributing to an important network of conservation areas near Tenterfield.

To the northeast, the wider granite landscape extends towards Bald Rock National Park, home to an immense exposed granite dome and one of the region's most celebrated natural landmarks.

Nearby, Boonoo Boonoo National Park protects rugged forested country, granite river valleys and the spectacular Boonoo Boonoo Falls.

These national parks lie beyond the principal Tenterfield sheet and provide important geographical context for the wider district.

South of Tenterfield, Bluff Rock is another remarkable granite formation, rising dramatically beside the New England Highway.

The surrounding region is also associated with the Mole River, Tenterfield Station, Mount Lindesay Road and New England Highway, important features of the district's transport and rural geography.

The combination of granite mountains, protected woodland, grazing properties and historic settlements makes Tenterfield particularly valuable for environmental research, rural property management and geographical education.

At 1:25,000 scale (1cm = 250 metres), the map provides detailed contours, waterways, roads, tracks and geographical reference information for interpreting this varied terrain.

Whether you're exploring Tenterfield's granite landscapes, studying local catchments, investigating rural property or undertaking professional fieldwork, the Tenterfield topographic map provides an excellent geographical reference.

The Tenterfield region contains exposed granite formations, rocky slopes, rural properties and roads subject to changing conditions. Heavy rainfall may cause creek flooding, erosion and slippery rock surfaces. Winter frost, fog and occasional snow or ice can affect travel across the Northern Tablelands. Bushfires, fallen trees and severe weather may also restrict access to forest and conservation areas. Some rural roads and reserve tracks have restricted entry. Always check current conditions, respect private property and carry appropriate navigation equipment.
