Copeton, NSW
Copeton is a rural area about 7 hours drive from Sydney, situated in the Gwydir Shire of New South Wales, bordered by Inverell to the North-east and Bingara to the west.
The area boasts the Copeton Dam (pictured above), a well-known inland sport and recreation hub that provides year-round entertainment for water sports enthusiasts, fishing enthusiasts, nature lovers, bushwalkers, campers, and picnickers.
The Copeton Dam’s large lake encompasses vast foreshores that house a recently upgraded holiday park. The primary objective of the dam is to cater to irrigation, livestock, and household needs in the Gwydir Valley and environmental flows to the Gwydir Wetlands.
