About this location
Vulcan State Forest sits in the Riverina near Oberon and is declared public hunting land in New South Wales, open at no cost to holders of a current NSW Restricted (R) Licence who make an online booking beforehand. The forest is open seven days a week to firearms, bows, black powder and dogs.
Foxes, feral pigs, fallow deer, and rabbits and hares are all listed species, and night-time pig hunting is permitted. Vulcan remains shared public land with other uses, so it is worth checking the current forest status and any closures before planning a hunting trip there.

The region
Hunting in the Riverina
The Riverina's web of rivers, the Murrumbidgee, Murray, Edward and Billabong Creek, threads red gum forest through some of Australia's most productive irrigated farmland. Pigs work the lignum swamps and crop edges, foxes den in every second creek bank, and rabbit warrens riddle the sandy rises.
