The Bureau of Meteorology has forecast snow and very strong winds for the popular spot.

Even though Barrington Tops Forest Road (Gloucester to Scone) is currently open, Hunter Valley Police District Inspector Guy Guiana said visitors are advised to exercise extreme care when driving in these conditions.

"The predicted weather conditions will make roads extremely slippery," Inspector Guiana said.

"With strong winds, there is also potential for trees and branches to fall, posing a direct risk to visitors, and possibly blocking access in and out of the area.

"Conditions will be monitored, and road closures may be put in place to ensure the safety of all users if required.

"It is vital that visitors planning a trip to the Barrington Tops are prepared for changing weather conditions.

"Let someone know your plans before travelling, understand that mobile phone coverage is very limited in this remote area, and that conditions on the sub-alpine plateau can change rapidly."

Winds have already caused havoc in the area, with a large tree brought down at the Victoria Hotel at Moonan Flat (near Barrington Tops).

No one was injured in the incident.
