I lived in Tamworth for most of my life and travelled to and through Coona regularly (2 hours from Tamworth), I have rels in Gilgandra. Both Gilgandra and Coonabarabran are great for observing, the Warrambungles (spelling) are slightly better due to the altitude. Terowina (spelling again) is a great camping spot (between Coona and Gilgandra) although not up on the mountain range still very dark skies, watch the friendly kangaroos at the camp site, they eat everything, and the possums, and the kookaburras.
Now Coonabarabran is a nine hour drive from the Gold Coast. If I can make it down, I usually stay in Tamworth for a night before continuing on to Coona. I go back to Tamworth quite often, but sadly Coona has missed out recently.
