Explore NSW
Looking for a comfortable, leisurely and safe way to see some of the best NSW has to offer? CountryLink's train and coach network covers thousands of kilometres across our diverse state, and beyond, taking you from the outback to the beach, from tropical rainforests to the snow. Our network is divided into four regions outlined below. Also, go to attraction and event ideas to help you plan your stay in Sydney & the Blue Mountains.
North Coast region
Coffs Harbour's famous Big Banana, dolphin and whale watching in the Great Lakes area and the world heritage listed rainforests of the Northern Rivers are just some of the attractions you can reach travelling on CountryLink's North Coast services. With routes extending to Brisbane and Murwillumbah (via Byron Bay) we provide a perfect introduction to the tropics. Photo: Byron Bay
