Dharawal was proclaimed a national park in 2012. Pristine ecosystems, waterfalls, extensive upland swamps, steep- sided sandstone gorges, swimming holes and rock shelters are just some of the many fascinating landscape features you can explore.

‘Dharawal’ refers to the language group of the local Aboriginal people who have continued their relationship with the area for more than 15,000 years. Their long occupation of the area is evidenced by many Aboriginal sites, making the area among the richest in Aboriginal heritage in the Sydney region.

2020 21 THE GEORGES RIVER

The Georges River and surrounds are a highly significant landscape feature of the Sydney region and the Campbelltown environment. It is home to much of the biodiversity that can be found in the region, including an active koala colony and provides immense scenic value to the area.

The Georges River was an important focal point for Aboriginal life and culture in the southern Sydney region, offering food, transport and dreamtime links. Several major language groups existed along the river: Eora to the east, Dharug to the west, north and north-east, Dharawal to the south and Gandangara in the far south-west.

The early 1800s saw European settlers migrating to the areas along the Georges River. Much of the catchment was cleared for farmlands and housing, however, the banks stayed relatively untamed due to their rugged slopes.
