    1. Re: [NSW-W] Moombooldool ?

    3. Hello Peter, Moombooldool is a small farming town situated between Ardlethan and Yenda east of Griffith in Western New South Wales. The nearest town to it on a map would probably be Barellan. Another larger town which might help you for directions is Temora which is to the east of Moombooldool. Hope this helps you a little. Robyn Clarke Wagga Wagga N.S.W.
