Carabost is a serene foresting community nestled in the southeast Riverina region of New South Wales. Located approximately 16 kilometers northwest of Rosewood and 22 kilometers southeast of Kyeamba, it lies along the Tumbarumba Road, adjacent to the expansive Carabost National Forest—a vast pine plantation. The town's notable landmarks include the historic Carabost Town Hall, established in 1927, and a fire brigade shed. Essential services are minimal, featuring a public telephone box and a post box, both situated at the district's emergency gathering point for forest fire responses. The name 'Carabost' is derived from the Gaelic term for 'Copse farm,' reflecting its Scottish heritage. Historically, the area was known for gold mining activities in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, though it was less prominent than neighboring regions like Humula and Tumbarumba. Today, Carabost offers a tranquil retreat amidst natural beauty, appealing to those seeking a peaceful rural lifestyle.
