The Road between Wismans Ferry and Bucketty

Most of the original Great North Road between Wisemans Ferry and Bucketty is within Dharug and Yengo National Parks, and is closed to vehicular traffic for its protection and conservation. It provides an ideal opportunity for walkers and cyclists to explore its many features away from the noise and intrusion of modern vehicles. Alternative routes for car-based travellers are via St Albans, along the road preferred by early travellers, and which became the main road in the 1860s. Most of this road is unsealed. A sealed route can be followed via Spencer and Mangrove Mountain.
