This will impact the Hume and Hovell Track from the powerline near Boundary Road, to the park entrance at Thomas Boyd Trackhead. The Hume & Hovell Team have established two Pickup/Detour options:

1. Argalong Road at Chinamans Creek Boardwalk - distance back to the track (Buckleys Bridge) on Goobarragandra Rd is 33.5km

2. Boundary Road - distance back to track (Buckleys Bridge) is 35km

It is a further 5km from Buckleys Bridge back to Thomas Boyd Trackhead.

The closure will be occurring in the pink highlighted area as shown on the map below (supplied by NPWS). The Hume & Hovell Track is the top right corner of the pink area.

For further information or enquiries specific to this work please contact NPWS at npws.southernrangesbranch@environment.nsw.gov.au

Please note: the Hume & Hovell Track passes through numerous land tenures which means access and management may be impacted by the governing body. This includes chemical usage, harvesting operations, road works and other maintenance.
