The scene of a massacre in 1844, this unusual granite outcrop keeps its secrets. There is no evidence of this terrible time, but the majestic beauty of this huge granite rock remains.
Geologically Bluff Rock consists of molten magma which cooled beneath the earth's surface about 225 million years ago.
Subsequent uplift and erosion have exposed it. Bluff rock stands above the surrounding area because it has been more erosion resistant due to having fewer cracks which water can penetrate and accelerate the erosion process.
The viewing area is 10kms to the south of Tenterfield.
