Mallanganee National Park, Nature reserve in Northern Rivers region, Australia
Mallanganee National Park is a protected area in northern New South Wales featuring mixed woodlands and wetland areas. The landscape supports diverse wildlife including birds, mammals, and reptiles across its varied terrain.
The park was officially established in 1999 to protect the region's natural habitats. It became part of a broader conservation effort for rainforest ecosystems in this area.
The park forms part of the Gondwana Rainforests of Australia World Heritage Site, recognized for its ecological and scientific importance since 1986.
Access is via gravel tracks that can become challenging after rain. Visitors should wear sturdy footwear and bring plenty of water, especially on warmer days.
The park combines lowland forests with higher elevation woodland across a relatively short distance. This change in elevation creates different habitats for specialized animal species.
