Georges River National Park, Protected nature reserve in New South Wales, Australia
Georges River National Park is a protected reserve in New South Wales featuring bushland, wetlands, and riverine habitats across an expansive area. The landscape supports numerous wildlife species throughout its diverse natural environments.
The area underwent significant changes between 1961 and 1967 that led to its protection as parkland. Official recognition as a national park came later in 1992.
The land carries the heritage of the Dharug people on the northern side and the Dharawal people on the southern side, with their presence shaped by the river and surrounding bushland for countless generations.
The park opens daily with hours that shift with the seasons. Bring sturdy footwear and water, as the paths traverse varied and sometimes steep terrain.
The reserve is home to many native vertebrate species and offers trails that wind through diverse landscapes. One prominent route cuts through bushland, wetlands, and open areas with shifting views at every turn.
