Gunnedah - Porcupine Lookout and Bindea Walking Track
http://www.visitgunnedah.com.au/index.php/play/lookouts
Porcupine lookout is two kilometers from town off Apex road and boasts panoramic views of Gunnedah and surrounding areas. The northern platform overlooks the town and beyond to the Nandewar Ranges more than 100 kilometers away. To the right are the hills of Kelvin and the Kelvin State Forest, with 'Nobby's Rock' being a notable feature that stands out in the afternoon sun. To the south is a panoramic view of the rich agricultural land of the Breeza and Pullaming plains – in times of flood this area presents a picture of a huge inland sea that can last for many days at a time.
Porcupine Lookout is ideally positioned to get a good view of the whole town and its surrounds. It's from here you appreciate just how flat this part of the world is particularly when compared to the Liverpool ranges in the distance. By day the sky will dazzle you with its blue intensity, and at night a million stars will blanket you.
Bindea Walking Track - To get an even better view of Gunnedah and the Namoi and Mooki River Valleys, you should head off along the Bindea Walking Track. The tracks start from the top of Porcupine Lookout and offer a range of walks that vary in length. These walks may be commenced or finish at the Anzac Park Track head or the Porcupine Track head.

Lake Keepit is a unique holiday destination for the whole family. Enjoy BBQs and picnics; let the kids tire themselves out on the BMX bike track, tennis courts, skate bowl, Water Park and playgrounds.

Surrounded by kilometres of pastoral and timber country that creates a picturesque setting for the Lake, the Park is also a great place for a day visit, being one of the only public spots to access Keepit Dam.
