Nestled close to the scenic Hervey Ranges, which form an enchanting kaleidoscope of colours from the town’s eastern backdrop, Peak Hill is a welcoming small town in the Central West region of New South Wales, backing onto Goobang National Park.

Peak Hill has a rich history, dating well before European settlement in Australia. The town has maintained its strong connection to culture and history through regular events, committees and groups.

Similar to the miners who moved to Peak Hill in the 1800s, new residents today realise they have struck gold. Peak Hill has a strong sense of community, coupled with a relaxed lifestyle, picturesque views and affordable housing. It makes sense as to why so many have already called Peak Hill home.
