Cessnock Region
Cessnock sits at the gateway to the Hunter Valley vineyards, surrounded by rolling hills covered in vines and dotted with cellar doors and farm‑gate produce stalls. Beyond the wine, the region’s coal mining heritage is evident in museum displays and the architecture of its towns. National parks in the Watagan Mountains offer rainforest walks and lookouts with views across the valley. Locals avoid the tourist crush by visiting small boutique wineries down gravel lanes and enjoying picnics near a natural sandstone arch in the hills where lyrebirds rustle through the undergrowth.
Cessnock Council has an approximate area of 2,000 km².
It is within the state electorate of Cessnock.
