Scenic Dorrigo, once an important timber town, today boasts the World Heritage-listed Dorrigo National Park. Focal-points of the rainforest park include both the Rainforest Centre and the dramatic Skywalk, a tree-top canopy walk offering a birds-eye view of the rainforest.

Renown for its hospitality, Dorrigo today is recognised as a place to enjoy country cooking, browsing through art shops and taking in the majestic nature areas both in and around the town.
