What we're doing

Park management activities

Bundjalung National Park has management strategies in place to protect and conserve the values of this park. Visit the detailed park and fire management documents. Here is just some of the work we’re doing to conserve these values:

    Understanding landscapes and geology

    Bundjalung National Park is dedicated to the maintenance of its landscapes and ensures this in conjunction with land and native vegetation conservation and ongoing attention to visitor safety and risk management.

    Preserving biodiversity

    NPWS is determined to protect and preserve significant ecosystems, habitats and endangered and vulnerable species throughout Bundjalung National Park. It strives to raise public awareness and understanding of these issues through interpretation programs, and works with park neighbours to conserve important wildlife habitats. Native tree planting, particularly those required by koalas, is ongoing in this park.

    Managing weeds, pest animals and other threats

    Pests and weeds have a significant impact to the ecosystems within Bundjalung National Park. Risk assessments for new and emerging weeds are carried out as an ongoing initiative within the park. Pest management of weeds such as bitou bush and other weeds, and wildlife like foxes, wild dogs and cane toads is a priority and an important part of the work NPWS does to protect the integrity of biodiversity which exists within Bundjalung.

    Developing visitor facilities and experiences

    The facilities and infrastructure in Bundjalung National Park are continually maintained and upgraded to ensure an optimal visitor experience. NPWS regularly reviews recreational opportunities in this park, identifying areas for improvement.

    Conserving our Aboriginal culture

    NPWS shares the management of Bundjalung National Park with members of the local Bandjalang Aboriginal community, and the two work together to help promote culture and reconciliation on national parks.

    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.
