Taree Caravan Parks, NSW

Situated on the banks of the Manning River, Taree is at the centre of the rich dairy and timer areas of the Manning Valley. Although the Pacific Highway now bypasses the town Taree is still a convenient stopover on a journey up or down the coast and has many motels and caravan parks, Queen Elizabeth Park on the banks of the river being a great place for a picnic lunch.

Taree, 320 km north of Sydney, is the main service centre for the Manning River Valley, a rich dairying and timber region. There is a heritage walk that encompasses the historical buildings around the centre of the town, including St Paul's Church, the town's oldest building.

Fotheringham Park is home to the town's Herb and Sculpture Garden. A unique community project, this includes sculptured posts and a herb garden, free for anyone. One of the best ways to experience the Manning River is to take a river cruise, which depart from the wharves near Fotheringham Park.

The Manning Regional Art Gallery has an excellent collection focussing on Australian art from the 1930s to today.

At the northern gateway to the town, you will find the Big Oyster. Another in Australia's obsession with "Big Things", the Big Oyster is a restaurant as well as a tribute to the vast oyster beds of the Manning River.
