The Gumbayngirr State Conservation Area is a protected conservation area located in the Mid North Coast region of New South Wales, in eastern Australia. The 2,561-hectare (6,330-acre) conservation area is situated west of Nambucca Heads and contains a sub–tropical jungle, known as the League Scrub. Another section of the park, formerly known was the Little Wonder State Forest, was protected from logging by a year long blockade in 1992.
