Popran National Park

Popran National Park extends across 3,970 hectares of protected land, featuring diverse landscapes from mangrove-lined waterways to eucalyptus forests along the Hawkesbury River foreshore.

The park, established in November 1994, received its name from Popran Creek, which flows through Glenworth Valley for 24 kilometers until reaching Mangrove Creek.

The national park holds numerous Aboriginal sites that document the connection between indigenous communities and this section of New South Wales territory.

The park entrance requires visitors with regular vehicles to park 600 meters from Ironbark picnic area, as the unsealed roads demand four-wheel drive capabilities.

Mount Olive lookout presents views over sandstone ridges while Hominy Creek track leads visitors through mangroves to spots where freshwater meets saltwater systems.
