Goonengerry is a locality located in the Northern Rivers Region of New South Wales. It sits within the Byron Shire local government area and is 26 kilometres (16 mi) from the regional centre of Byron Bay.
It contains the Goonengerry National Park, once known as the Tom Rummery Forest, which was once used for logging and is now protected due to its significant environmental values and the number of Albert's lyrebird living there.
The park is located on the traditional lands of the Widjabul Wia-bal People of the Bundjalung Nation who are its traditional custodians.
