For alternate access, options are to use the shallow road ford adjacent (only in times of low water flow), or alternatively consider the flagged walking track to access Urumbilum Falls.
\n\n\n\n
NPWS will be rerouting and improving the walking track access to Urumbilum Falls as part of the Dorrigo Escarpment Great Walk over the next two years. This project is already planned and funded, with on-ground work underway in other sectors.

Maynggu Ganai Historic Site consist of three separate management precincts - locally referred to as the Government House Block, the Military Barracks Block and the Well Block. Please be advised that the National Parks and Wildlife Service (NPWS) undertakes regular and ongoing weed spraying operations across these three areas. These weed management works include (but are not limited too) spraying of all of the boundary and timber bollard fence lines and internal walking track routes with Roundup Biactive and Associate (being glyphosate and metsulfuron chemical products respectively). These works are conducted in order to; control exotic grasses and environmental weeds, assist with grounds maintenance activities such as mowing and improve the aesthetics of the site. In addition, NPWS staff then treat other emerging weeds on a cases by case basis, such as St Johns Wort using Grazon Extra.

The National Parks and Wildlife Service is undertaking major repair works on a 1.5-kilometere section of the Tallowa Dam Road in Morton National Park, which was extensively damaged from flooding between 2022-2025.
\n\nTechnical investigations confirm that substantial reconstruction works are required to stabilise and restore the road for safe use. Repair work is expected to start in late 2026 and be completed by mid-2027.
\n\nUntil work is completed, there is no vehicle access to the Tallowa Dam from Tallowa Dam Road. Visitors can still access the area via Beehive Point or Bendeela, and the Three Views Walking Track is open.
\n\nMotorists are advised to expect an increase in heavy vehicle traffic on Tallowa Dam Road when work commences, and possible short delays during construction hours of 7am – 5pm.
\n\nThe work aims to restore safe access, improve resilience to future weather events and reduce the risk of ongoing closures.

NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service (NPWS) is conducting 1080 ground baiting programs from 10 August 2026 to 10 December 2026, in the following reserves:
\n\nThe operation will use 1080 (sodium fluoroacetate) poison for the control of foxes.
\n\nThe program is designed to minimise predator impacts on wildlife, especially threatened species like the Western Saw-shelled Turtle.
\n\nSigns will be placed at the entry to the baiting location. Domestic pets are not permitted in NSW National Parks managed lands. Pets and working dogs may be affected (1080 is lethal to cats and dogs). Pets and working dogs must be restrained or muzzled in the vicinity and must not enter the baiting location. In the event of accidental poisoning seek immediate veterinary assistance.

Due to feral pigs causing impacts to the Reserve, and to meet NPWS's General Biosecurity Duty, (GBD), under the Biosecurity Act, NPWS will be using Hoggone bait to control feral pigs.
\n\n\n\n
NPWS pesticide trained staff will be using a new control product to decrease impacts caused by feral pigs in the Reserve.
\n\n\n\n
HOGGONE will be used on these Reserves, and the product is a peanut based product with Sodium nitrite as the poison.
\n\n\n\n
This product is very effective at controlling feral pigs and when used carefully has few off-target impacts.

NPWS staff will be monitoring the success of the program, and this program may last multiple weeks.
