A little further on you reach the township of Comboyne, nestled below Mt
Bulli. Call in at the Comboyne Community Centre to collect maps and more
information on the area. Comboyne is a small village with less than 200
residents but is well known for its local café, the Udder Cow, which offers fresh
country food and great coffee.
From Comboyne head west via Innes View Road to Boorgana Nature Reserve.
Parts of this reserve were gazetted in 1904, making it the second oldest in
NSW.
From the main picnic area you can stroll down the 2.7km walking track, which
descends into the magnificent rainforest. About half way along this track
Rawson Lookout overlooks the 40 metre drop of Mumfords Creek. Be warned
however that the walk back is uphill!
For an even more impressive waterfall, visit the 200 metre Ellenborough
Falls at Elands, approximately 30kms further west via Wingham Road.
Ellenborough Falls is one of the longest single drop waterfalls in Australia.

The mountain road is winding and has approximately 19kms of gravel surface.
This road is not recommended for caravans and large trailers.
From Ellenborough you can retrace your drive back to Port Macquarie or
continue onto historic Wingham via Bulga Forest Drive. Dating back to 1844,
Wingham is a picturesque town laid out around a traditional English village
green.
Today there remain many examples of its fine heritage buildings, an excellent
local museum and a great emerging café culture, the perfect place to ‘step
back in time’. Wingham Brush, the last remnants of subtropical floodplain
rainforest in NSW with its ancient Moreton Bay figs, is also well worth a visit.
There is a viewing platform from the top and a timbered walkway to the
bottom of the falls with lookouts and rest areas along the way, but again
remember, the walk back is uphill!
From Wingham drive to Taree and join the Pacific Highway for the trip back to
Port Macquarie.
