Campus planning
Know which part of UNE you need before setting out.
UNE’s Armidale campus includes the Academic and Bellevue precincts. Buildings, event locations and parking areas are spread across the campus, so a single distance cannot describe every visit.
UNE currently advises that general parking bays are available to visitors free of charge, while timed, accessible and restricted bays have their own conditions. Follow the signs and check the official parking page before arrival.
University visitor stays
Choose the layout that fits the people coming with you.
There is no university endorsement or special UNE rate. Availability and the complete current price come from the live booking service.
