Capture your favourite NSW national park before 31 January 2023 and win a dream holiday.

NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service (NPWS) is inviting you to head into your favourite NSW national parks and capture the beauty of nature through your camera’s lens. 

“Considering we have some of NSW’s most iconic and well-visited national parks, this is the perfect excuse to head out and explore all that the MidCoast has to offer,” said Gerard Tuckerman, MidCoast Council’s Manager Natural Systems.

“The natural beauty of our region is recognised widely. Myall Lakes National Park was the ninth most visited National Park in NSW in 2018.

“Barrington Tops, Crowdy Bay and Booti Booti National Parks are also very well visited,” added Mr Tuckerman.

The photo competition is an opportunity for nature lovers and photographers to showcase the incredible beauty and diversity of our parks and reserves and help tell the story of our important natural places and cultural heritage.

Whether you’re a beginner, an amateur or professional photographer, adventurer or nature enthusiast, this competition is for you. If you love photography, exploring new trails and lookouts, or simply spending time in nature, NPWS would love to see the national parks from your perspective.

Enter your best shot of any NSW national park or reserve, or on Lord Howe Island in the photo competition categories below:
