Sawn Rocks walking track

New England, NSW

Easy 1.5 km return walk to Mount Kaputar’s organ-pipe andesite cliff, one of inland NSW’s best geology sights.

About this place

Sawn Rocks walking track is a Grade 2, 1.5 km return (about 45 min) beside a shady creek to the organ-pipe Sawn Rocks lookout. NPWS notes a 1.2 m-wide bitumen then metal boardwalk to the main lookout (step-free, accessible with assistance); a steeper 51-step continuation looks up at the columns. Start at Sawn Rocks picnic area off Killarney Gap Road, 35 km from the Newell Highway near Narrabri — a different precinct to the plateau summit.

Access & getting there

From Narrabri drive 3 km north on the Newell then ~35 km along Killarney Gap Road (Bingara Road) to the Sawn Rocks turn-off. Bitumen carpark with an accessible space. No dogs.
