Wollombi Voyage Tips and guide

Contents

Wollombi is a village located at the edge of the Hunter Valley wine country and located at the intersection of Tourist Drive 33, in New South Wales, Australia. While it's in the Central Coast, Wikivoyage covers it in the Hunter region for practical purposes.

Wollombi is located at a fork on the convict built Great North Road (Tourist Drive 33).

Wollombi is 29 km south-west of Cessnock on Wollombi Road and around 40km north of Calga. A very pleasant route, through picturesque rural countryside. Additionally, there's no other forms of transport to Wollombi. Only car.
