The Pilliga Forest, sometimes known as the Pilliga Scrub, constitute over 5,000 km2 of semi-arid woodland in temperate north-central New South Wales, Australia. It is the largest such continuous remnant in the state. The forest is located near the towns of Baradine and Narrabri and the villages of Pilliga and Gwabegar.

Most land within the Pilliga is in crown tenure, either as State Forest[1] (2,416 km2), Nature Reserve, State Conservation Area or National Park[2] (2,770 km2).
