Uda Iluka

Uda Iluka is a rural locality and small community situated in the Mid-Coast Council local government area of New South Wales, Australia. It lies on the Bootawa River, a tributary of the Manning River, not far from the larger town of Wingham. Uda Iluka is primarily characterized by agricultural land, particularly grazing properties, and scattered residential dwellings. Due to its proximity to both the Manning River and nearby national parks, outdoor recreational activities such as fishing and bushwalking are common. The community maintains a quiet, rural lifestyle, with local activities often centered around farming and community events within the broader Manning Valley region. Essential services are typically accessed in nearby towns like Wingham and Taree. The name "Uda Iluka" is believed to have Aboriginal origins, although the precise meaning is not definitively established.
