The iconic Prince Henry Cliff walk in Blue Mountains National Park is located on the edge of a spectacular escarpment with sweeping views of the Greater Blue Mountains Area World Heritage Property. This volunteer bushcare group manages the weeds creeping their way through the creeks that flow from Katoomba and Leura.
Help us remove weeds and restore the native threatened-species habitat by weeding and planting. You will learn about the plants and animals that call this beautiful national park home and enjoy a spot of morning tea while you lend a helping hand.
Remember to wear long sleeves and long trousers (preferably cotton drill) and be prepared for uneven terrain and varying weather conditions.
Volunteer for bushfire recovery
Following this season's unprecedented bushfires, you can register your interest to help the NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service (NPWS) and the Saving our Species program rehabilitate and protect our threatened animals and plants.
Saving Our Species program
Australia is home to more than 500,000 animal and plant species, many of which are found nowhere else in the world. Saving our Species is a statewide conservation program that addresses the growing number of Australian animals and Australian native plants facing extinction.
