Mount Rankin is a rural locality in the Bathurst Regional Council area, postcode 2795, named for the Mount Rankin hill and range in the district. It is made up of grazing and rural-residential properties with no town centre.
Mount Rankin is about 14 km north-north-west of Bathurst on hilly tableland country, between Bathurst and the Billywillinga and Milkers Flat districts.
There are no developed visitor attractions in the locality. The nearest attractions are in Bathurst, including Mount Panorama, the Australian Fossil and Mineral Museum and the city’s heritage precinct.
A taxi over 219 km runs on the meter with no set price, and few will come out to Mount Rankin for a pre-dawn start. Public transport means a coach or drive to the nearest station, a train to Central and a change to the airport line with your luggage — and nothing gets you there for an early flight. Driving yourself means about 2 hr 56 min each way plus airport parking for every day you are away. See the full comparison.
Flying home? We meet you at the rideshare area inside the P7 car park at T1, or the Priority Pick-up area off the P1 walkway at T2 and T3, with free waiting of 60 minutes after an international landing and 40 after a domestic one — step-by-step pickup directions.
Family down the road or a friend on the way — we collect from more than one address on the same run, so everyone travels in one vehicle for one fixed fare. Add the extra stops when you book.
