Staying safe
It’s great to escape city life and go bushwalking, picnicking
or cycling in national parks. However, these are natural
environments so you need to take some precautions. Areas
can be rugged, weather can change quickly and the sea may
be unpredictable. Remember to plan ahead, be aware of
the risks and take responsibility for your own safety and the
safety of any children in your care. When visiting Sydney Harbour National Park, please supervise
children closely, keep to tracks and stay behind safety fences,
be on the lookout for falling rocks, uneven or slippery surfaces
and cliff edges, and avoid feeding or touching the wildlife.
For more safety tips, visit www.environment.nsw.gov.au/
parksafety
Tread softly
National parks are special areas and it’s up to all of us to
treat them with care. Here are some tips to help minimise
your impact:
ff Stay on the track – walking on track edges and cutting
corners increases erosion and visual scarring.
ff Use rubbish bins or take your litter with you when you leave.
ff Leave your dog at home – dogs are not permitted in
/
8BTIBXBZ#FBDI
ff Cycle on fire trails and roads only, not on walking tracks.
Volunteer in the park
The NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service has a proud
tradition of working with volunteers on a wide range of projects,
such as bush regeneration, flora and fauna surveys, threatened
species management, culture and heritage conservation,
working in information centres and conducting guided tours.

Increasing urbanisation has led to the disappearance of
many native animals, although brushtail and ringtail possums,
echidna, bats, flying foxes and a variety of reptiles survive in
places. North Head is home to a population of long-nosed
bandicoots and little penguins inhabit areas around North
Harbour, where access restrictions are in place to protect the
endangered population.

The park also protects early colonial buildings, including the
work of convict labourers. The fortifications at North Head,
Bradleys Head, Middle Head and South Head were built
to counter the threat of invasion from foreign fleets, while
the original Quarantine Station protected the colony from
infectious disease.
The park includes important remnants of the vegetation that
once covered much of the coast around Sydney. The largest
remaining stand of the rare Eastern Suburbs Banksia Scrub
community is at North Head. The park protects a number
of other rare plants, such as Camfields eucalypt, sunshine
wattle and Nielsen Park sheoak.

Sydney Harbour National Park’s rich Aboriginal heritage
isn’t so easy to spot, but a number of sites reflect the vibrant,
diverse and enduring strength of Aboriginal culture. Sites in
the park include rock engravings, shell middens, axe grinding
grooves and rock art. The traditional owners include the
Cadigal people in Sydney Cove and the Cameraigal people
north of the harbour.
