About Guntawang

Guntawang is a small rural locality in the Mudgee Region of New South Wales, situated in the Central Tablelands west of the Blue Mountains near Gulgong. The locality covers approximately 63 square kilometres with a very small permanent population of around 43 residents, and falls within the Mid-Western Regional Council area. The surrounding countryside is characterised by rolling agricultural land, grazing properties, and the vineyards for which the broader Mudgee wine region is celebrated.

Life in Guntawang is quintessentially rural, with residents engaged in farming, viticulture, and livestock grazing on the rich red soils of the Central Tablelands. The historic township of Gulgong — famous for its 19th-century gold rush heritage and appearance on the Australian ten-dollar note — is just a short drive away and provides essential services, shops, and community facilities. The area appeals to those seeking a quiet country lifestyle with access to the renowned Mudgee wine region, which is popular for cellar door experiences and rural tourism.

Guntawang falls under postcode 2852 and is governed by the local council Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Dubbo electorate.
