The Budawang Range, commonly called The Budawangs, a rugged mountain range within the Budawang National Park and the Morton National Park, are part of a spur off the Great Dividing Range and are located in the South Coast region of New South Wales, Australia.
The highest mountain in the range is Mount Budawang that has an elevation of 1,129 metres (3,704 ft) above sea level.
Commmencing between the headwaters of the Clyde and Endrick rivers, The Budawangs extend in a generally south southwest direction for about 53 kilometres (33 mi) to Mount Budawang about 8 kilometres (5.0 mi) southeast of Mongarlowe. The range consists of mountains and escarpments, generally at an elevation of 334 metres (1,096 ft) AHD , forming most of the western watershed of the Clyde River. The range comprises a series of hills extending generally west northwest from the north end of Budawang Range near Sassafras for about 21 kilometres (13 mi) to above the junction of the Shoalhaven and Endrick rivers. The Pigeon House Range forms the watershed between the northeast waters of Endrick River and those flowing north into the Shoalhaven River. A prominent range bearing west northwest forms the watershed separating the Endrick and Shoalhaven River systems. The Budawang Range is located approximately 190 kilometres (120 mi) south-southwest of Sydney.
The range defines part of the boundary between the New South Wales South Coast and the Southern Tablelands.
Much of the land within the range has been declared a wilderness area and are popular with bush walkers due to their terrain and unique features.
