Tambaroora is a locality in Bathurst Regional Council, immediately north of Hill End, with a population of 30 at the 2021 census. A gold-mining town of the same name once stood here, but it declined as nearby Hill End grew. Parts of the locality are within the Hill End Historic Site.
Tambaroora lies just north of Hill End, about 80 km by road from Bathurst, in hilly goldfields country.
Tambaroora itself has remnants of the old town, including a cemetery. Hill End Historic Site next door has the main heritage attractions.
A taxi over 285 km runs on the meter with no set price, and few will come out to Tambaroora 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 3 hr 38 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.
