Wolli Creek Regional Park

Park management activities

Preserving biodiversity

NPWS is committed to protecting all native species, and regeneration and conservation programs operate within Wolli Creek Regional Park. Natural heritage features are protected, managed and interpreted, and recreation facilities are upgraded, where required. Efforts to minimise the impact of threats to the park’s biodiversity are ongoing.

Managing weeds, pest animals and other threats

Pests and weeds have a significant impact to the ecosystems within Wolli Creek Regional Park. NPWS carries out risk assesments for new and emerging weeds to protect biodiversity in this park.

Developing visitor facilities and experiences

By providing quality visitor facilities and conserving park landscapes, NPWS works to increase opportunities for people to visit and experience Wolli Creek Regional Park. Park staff work to encourage public enjoyment of the area and its bushland. Walking tracks and trails are maintained and environmental enhancement programs are ongoing.

Conserving our Aboriginal culture

Aboriginal cultural heritage is of great value to NPWS. Ongoing projects are in place in Wolli Creek Regional Park to audit, monitor and maintain the condition of its cultural sites and assets. Working with local councils and Aboriginal communities, NPWS works to protect, maintain and interpret all items of significance.

Managing fire

NSW is one of the most bushfire prone areas in the world as a result of our climate, weather systems, vegetation and the rugged terrain. NPWS is committed to maintaining natural and cultural heritage values and minimising the likelihood and impact of bushfires via a strategic program of fire research, fire planning, hazard reduction, highly trained rapid response firefighting crews and community alerts.
