Covering the remote Six Brothers country between Wollemi and Yengo national parks, this detailed map provides valuable geographical information for experienced bushwalkers, wilderness explorers, environmental professionals, park rangers and emergency services.

This remarkable landscape is characterised by deeply dissected sandstone ranges, steep forested slopes, isolated ridgelines and rugged creek valleys. The region includes the Wollemi Range, Mellong Range, Womerah Range, Culoul Range and Howes Range, together forming an intricate network of sandstone high country.

The map identifies distinctive geographical features including Six Brothers, Six Brothers Waterhole, Blue Waterhole, Colo Gorge and the surrounding Wollemi wilderness.

Sections of Wollemi National Park, Yengo National Park and Parr State Conservation Area are represented, highlighting the extensive protected landscapes of the region.

The map also records geographical access features such as Putty Road, Mellong Range Trail, Howes Swamp Trail and Womerah Range Trail, providing useful reference points for understanding the relationship between roads, ridgelines and remote forest country.

At a scale of 1:25,000 (1cm = 250 metres), the map provides the detail needed to interpret contours, identify drainage systems, recognise ridgelines and understand the challenging terrain of this sandstone wilderness.

Whether you're planning a remote bushwalk, studying the geography of the Greater Blue Mountains or undertaking environmental fieldwork, the Six Brothers topographic map provides an invaluable geographical reference.

For current walking-track conditions, park closures and visitor information, consult NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service.

The Six Brothers region contains remote sandstone wilderness, steep terrain and challenging off-track navigation. Many management trails are not open to public vehicles, and a mapped track does not necessarily indicate a public right of access. Heavy rainfall may cause rapid rises in creeks and waterholes. Always check current conditions, carry appropriate navigation equipment and respect park restrictions and private property.
