🏔️ Explore the Limestone Caves and Mountain Landscapes of Yarrangobilly

Discover one of the most fascinating landscapes in the northern Snowy Mountains of New South Wales with the Yarrangobilly 8526-1S Topographic Map, sourced from the official NSW Spatial Services Topographic Map Series.

Covering Yarrangobilly and the surrounding high country of Kosciuszko National Park, this detailed map provides valuable geographical information for bushwalkers, cave enthusiasts, environmental professionals, park rangers, surveyors and emergency services.

Yarrangobilly is renowned for its remarkable limestone caves, thermal pool and spectacular mountain scenery. Set among forested ridges and deeply incised valleys, the district contains some of the most distinctive geological formations in the Australian Alps.

The wider landscape includes Yarrangobilly Caves, the Yarrangobilly River, rugged limestone country, mountain forests and historic high-country routes. The region's caves, underground waterways and karst formations reveal a fascinating geological history shaped by water and the gradual dissolution of limestone.

Above ground, steep slopes, winding creeks and extensive eucalypt forests create a landscape that rewards careful exploration. The surrounding country forms part of Kosciuszko National Park, with walking opportunities ranging from established visitor trails to demanding wilderness terrain.

At a scale of 1:25,000 (1cm = 250 metres), the map provides the detail needed to interpret contours, identify waterways, understand ridgelines and plan journeys through this complex mountain environment.

Whether you're exploring the Yarrangobilly Caves district, researching limestone geology, planning a bushwalk 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.
