The horse-shoe shaped red silt-stone cliff lines of the Nangar-Murga range is a landmark of the central west's rolling plains. The rocky slopes running down to Terrara creek, forests rich in flowering shrubs and timbered hills form an important wildlife refuge in a landscape that has been largely cleared.

A variety of bird species are found including wrens, thornbills, falcons and hawks. Rarer birds, such as peregrine falcons and glossy black cockatoos, also frequent the area. Eastern grey kangaroos and grey, red-neck and swamp wallabies are also common.

Getting there: This park is 50 km west of Orange near Eugowra and Canowindra. To access the park via Eugowra, travel 10 km along Escort Way heading east towards Orange, then turn right at the Old Windmill and the sign indicating 70 km to Orange.

To access the eastern side of the park, take the Canowindra turn-off form Escort Way at 'Longs Corner'. Head south for approximately 9.5 km, then turn off onto the gravel Mogong Creek Road after the Pine Hill property. After about 4 km you'll reach the park boundary, where there's easy foot access into the park.
