Directions: From Sydney
Take the Sydney to Newcastle Expressway north and follow it right to its end. At the roundabout turn right and follow the 'Pacific Highway 1' signs to Hexham and then left over the Hunter River bridge. (CAUTION when you come to the Raymond Terrace roundabout IGNORE the sign that says Dungog Barrington Tops.) Drive straight through the roundabout following the signs to Barrington Tops via Gloucester.
You will bypass Raymond Terrace, following the 'Taree' signs. On the Pacific Highway 20km north of the Raymond Terrace Bypass Roundabout, turn left onto the 'Bucketts Way' to Stroud (Gloucester & Barrington Tops). The turn off to Riverwood Downs is on your left, 17 km beyond Stroud. Do watch for the turn off, as it comes up rather quickly if you are travelling at highway speed. Then just follow the signs 8km in to Riverwood Downs. (Note: there is no need to go through Newcastle to get to Riverwood Downs.)
