New vision shows the moment missing kids in rural NSW were found

New vision released by police shows the moment two children who went missing in rural NSW were found, praised as a "fantastic result" by emergency services.

Police were called to Cedars Road, Kains Flat, about 35km north-east of Mudgee in the Mid-Western region about 5.45pm on Monday.

They were told 14-year-old Eli Jones and 12-year-old Hannah Jones went for a walk about 2.30pm and did not come back.

Police rescue, specialist police and the dog squad were all involved in the search, along with NSW Ambulance, Rural Fire Service Volunteer Rescue Association and the Westpac Lifesaver Rescue Helicopter Service.

The pair were found today in bushland at Kains Flat.

Detective Inspector Natalie Antaw said the pair were spotted by a toll rescue helicopter and "located safe and well".

The police vision shows the children walking through dense bushland when the helicopter spotted them.

"The helicopter winched down ambulance paramedics who were able to walk with the children out to a waiting ambulance, where they were reunited with their parents," she said.

NSW Ambulance Inspector Jed Gollan said the children were "tired, thirsty, and had quite a few mosquito bites – but they were otherwise in good health".

"Reuniting them with their parents was a great moment."
