Leacock Regional Park protects a diverse range of values, including remnant bushland and wetlands, escarpment views, and an historic rural landscape that is listed on the State Heritage Register.

Vegetation in the park includes Cumberland Plain Woodland Critically Endangered Ecological Community, and two endangered ecological communities: River-Flat Eucalypt Forest on Coastal Floodplains and Swamp Oak Floodplain Forest.

The park links to a wildlife movement corridor along the Georges River and south-east to the bushland of Holsworthy Military Reserve and provides habitat for threatened fauna.
