Open, check current alerts 

Overview

Wianamatta Regional Park was created in March 2008. It covers an area of 765ha. View the detailed park and fire management documents.

This park is a former Australian Defence Industries site with great future plans to add new visitor areas. Embark on a bushwalk or enjoy a tasty barbecue lunch in the great outdoors. Take a family bike ride or walk along one of the many sealed tracks in this park.

If you're feeling adventurous, take Great West walk along scenic Luxfords trail. This 9.3km return trail will take you through the eastern visitor precinct, through a section zoned for conservation and across both Ropes and South Creeks. Explore the regenerating native woodland and remains of buildings, roads and berms from the St Marys Munitions Filling Factory years.

Wianamatta Regional Park lies within the Cumberland Plain and protects temperate eucalypt woodland including a number of endangered ecological communities. The reserve supports a number of threatened, endangered and regionally significant plant and animal species, including pea-flowers, grevilleas, several bat species and the Cumberland Plain land snail.

Please remember that NSW national parks are no smoking areas and that pets are not permitted in this park.
