You will come here to enjoy the beauty and tranquility of `Black Mountain'. `Black Mountain’ is on Gumbainggir country. It is a registered conservation property bordering Nymboida River and Nymboi-Binderay National Park. Alastair and I have shared the property for more than 25 years and consider ourselves custodians of this precious place. Visitors enjoy: the pristine river; walking tracks through diverse terrain; starry night skies and campfires. Previous guests recommend staying at least two nights to soak up the atmosphere and explore the area. Choose from the 'Ant Shack' or four adjacent campsites with easy access and views to the Nymboida River. Shared facilities include a hot shower and composting toilets. You can walk, swim and kayak, explore the area or just relax for days. We can’t accommodate domestic animals or allow fishing, not even catch and release because we protect our wildlife and the endangered Eastern Cod. Black Mountain is remote but just 60 kilometres from Grafton or Coffs (via back way). 2WD access to our house is from Nymboida only. 4WD/AWD from Lowanna or Glenreagh and 4WD/AWD down to the river/campsite area - Not suitable for caravans. All proceeds from Airbnb and Hipcamp are invested in the continuing conservation of Black Mountain.

Unforgettable Nymboida Getaway!

Black Mountain 4WD - The Ant Shack

Unforgettable Nymboida Getaway! Our stay at Nymboida was incredible! Merryl was an amazing host, and the pristine river made for the perfect escape. The highlight? Spotting a platypus and two kingfishers—pure magic! The kids felt so safe, and the canoe adventure was unforgettable. Can’t wait to go back—this time, just with the boys! 😜 Highly recommend!

Black Mountain 4WD - Eagle's Nest

camping along the river was a lovely experience. the area is completely secluded and peaceful. the river is absolutely stunning, the water is clear and easy to swim and walk in. the campsites are great, with water and a firepit, everything one needs to enjoy the day. the bathrooms are also very well maintained and it actually has a hot shower which is an unexpected but welcomed bonus.

Black Mountain 4/ALLWD- Drongo Dell

Merryl & Alister have created such a lovely place for guests to enjoy the nymboida river from a camping experience with the luxuries of a hot shower and toilets. Their genuine care for the environment and visitor experience. We appreciated all the quirky signage and the fire wood too. Will be back again for sure :)

We loved the site, especially our lovely hosts Alaistair and Merryl, who were so considerate to lend us additional camping gear. The amenities were good. Overall, we had an enjoyable stay.
