Please note
  • You can only visit Muogamarra Nature Reserve if you've booked a guided tour in advance.
  • You can only access this track at the tour times.
  • It is 3km from the park gate to the visitor centre, so please allow for this in your travel time.
  • Supervise children near lookouts and clifftops with no barriers.
  • Muogamarra Nature Reserve protects a fragile ecosystem so let’s keep it plastic free.

Bird Gully track is clearly defined by its different plant communities, which have been shaped through fire. As we walk 3.5km through this beautiful area, we'll acknowledge the traditional inhabitants of this land. Grinding grooves above the picturesque waterfall are a reminder of Aboriginal culture.

See the remains of a sand mining quarry that provided materials for the old Pacific Highway. Keep your eyes peeled for the birds who call this area home, including the glossy black cockatoo and the New Holland honey eater.

Muogamarra Nature Reserve is open for just 6 weeks a year to preserve its fragile ecosystems and Aboriginal heritage. 

Look out for the beautiful new flower design on the Muogamarra merchandise this year to add to your collection. The design will be available on a sticker, magnet, tote bag and tea towel. Remember to pre-purchase items online when booking your ticket so you don’t miss out.
