About Naradhan

Naradhan is a remote rural locality in the Central West of New South Wales, situated approximately 70 kilometres north-west of Condobolin in the Lachlan Shire council area. Covering an extensive 622 square kilometres, the locality lies in the flat, arid semi-desert country of the western Lachlan plains, where large-scale sheep and cattle grazing on extensive pastoral holdings characterise the land use. With a population of around 63 residents, Naradhan is one of the most sparsely settled localities in the NSW Central West.

Condobolin, the nearest substantial town, provides supermarkets, schools, and a hospital, while serving as the main service centre for the broader Lachlan Shire. The Lachlan River, which runs through the broader region, and the Lachlan Valley Way connect the locality to the wider road network. Naradhan suits those committed to the remote pastoral lifestyle of the western plains, with vast open spaces and a strong outback station community character.

Naradhan falls under postcode 2669 and is governed by the local council Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Murray electorate.
