Entry to the lodge itself is via a gate on the Southside of the Burning Mountain rest area on the New England Highway. Wingen is an Aboriginal word meaning “FIRE”. The Burning Mountain is one of the main tourist attractions of the Upper Hunter Valley, the 14-hectare Burning Mountain Reserve conserves active smoking vents from a coal seam burning underground and it is believed that the fire has been burning for more than 5000 years and is the only one in Australia.

The Lodge allows visitors to experience the rural land and observe native flora and fauna living amongst that landscape, the homestead has been designed to suit couples or can be booked by groups as it has 6 bedrooms.
