Cascade National Park is a national park located in New South Wales, Australia, 431 kilometres (268 mi) northeast of Sydney. Its establishment followed environmental campaigns, including the blockading of logging within sections that would form part of the park, such as Wild Cattle Creek.[1]

The park covers 3,700ha of temperate and subtropical rainforest.[2][3]
