    3.3 Wombeyan Caves

    CHAPTER 3. CASE STUDIES 132 3.3 Wombeyan Caves Introduction Wombeyan Caves are located about 130 km to the south-west of Sydney (Figures 1.3 and 3.76). They are accessible by road from Mittagong or Goulburn and Taralga in the Southern Highlands (CMA Map 1976). Wombeyan Caves have been known to settlers since 1828 and developed for tourism since at least 1879 (Dyson et al. 1982). Wombeyan Caves Reserve is managed by the Jenolan Caves Reserve Trust (the same body which manages Jenolan Caves) and is a popular area for camping, walking and tourism. The surrounding area is agricultural but much of it is steep and left in a natural state. For most of the karst area, the vegetation is eucalypt woodland and grassland. Vegetation along creeks is dominated by Casuarina sp. Within the Caves Reserve are a number of marble quarries (ML2, ML3, ML4). The creamy white marble was quarried by Melocco Bros. for building stone. A quarry run by Steetly Industries crushes marble for industrial products. Geological Setting Regional Geology Wombeyan Caves is about 19 km west of the western edge of the Sydney Basin. About 5 km to the west of Wombeyan Caves is a narrow belt of folded Ordovician sediments of the Triangle Group, trending N-S (Figure 3.75). These sediments are unconformably overlain further to the west by sandstones of the Upper Devonian Lambie Group which have developed in a syncline, forming a wide N-S trending belt (Cookbundoon Synclinorium). Silurian sediments, including a small amount of limestone, crop out about 20 km to the SE of Wombeyan Caves, SSW of Bullio.
  • Southern Highlands

    Southern Highlands

    SOUTHERN HIGHLANDS This information is intended as a guide only. Please check websites. Location: The Southern Highlands is a region south west of Sydney and quite close (45 – 60 minutes by car) to the outer suburbs of Sydney. It is area managed by Wingecarribee Shire Council. The main towns in the region are Mittagong, Bowral, Moss Vale, Bundanoon and Robertson. There are also a number of small villages set in a rural environment. It is on the major route between Sydney and Melbourne (the M5 and Hume Highway) and is about 2 hours from Canberra, the national capital. Overview: The proximity of the Southern Highlands to Sydney, plus its cool temperate climate and vibrant cultural life has attracted many people to live in this region as they can commute to Sydney for work. The region also attracts day trippers and holiday makers from Sydney and Canberra, drawn there by its spectacular natural scenery, beautiful gardens and historic towns such as Berrima. Other tourist attractions include galleries, cafes and restaurants, bush walks, caves and wineries. The various towns in the Southern Highlands each have their own character and special events. As the towns are quite close to each other, people can live in one town and easily visit the others. Because of its proximity to South West Sydney, there is the possibility for people on SHEV visas to live in the Southern Highlands and commute to work or study in an area such as Campbelltown which is 45 minutes by car and 1 hour by train. It is also easy to get back to Sydney to see family and friends and participate in cultural or religious celebrations.

    RESTAURANT AUSTRALIA | MEDIA INFORMATION NSW FOOD AND WINE TRAIL – SOUTHERN HIGHLANDS A short drive south from Sydney unearths a delightful range of local wines, cheeses and preserves – plus an amazing array of landscapes along the way. Uncover the delicious secrets of Southern Highlands wine and fine food on a road trip that takes you on an easy two-hour drive south of Sydney into a breathtaking landscape of lush pastures and quaint villages. After some fortifying stops for a tipple and cup of tea in the highlands, the road heads through a dramatic landscape of sandstone escarpments and eucalypts to the coast. The finale is in the picturesque south coast town of Berry, a stone’s throw from the Shoalhaven River and the beaches of Gerroa and Gerringong, and an easy return drive to Sydney. DAY 1: SYDNEY TO BOWRAL Grab an early start for the pick of the produce at Bowral Public School Farmers’ Market, held on the second Saturday of the month. Berries, organic bread and tomatoes that are fresh picked are just some of the goodies you’ll unearth among the French linen and garden plants. Lunch is in Berrima at Bendooley Bar & Grill, which shares a sprawling 200-year-old timber barn in the manicured gardens of Bendooley Estate with renowned bookseller, Berkelouw. The Estate was part of one of the region’s original land grants and is now also home to a winery. Spend the afternoon unearthing the splendour of local wines. As a small wine region, with predominantly small wineries, the Southern Highlands has a compact wine offering with little drive time between each winery.

    The Vertebrate Fauna of Wollondilly River Nature Reserve Map 3: Records of Threatened Non-Passerine % Birds for Wollondilly River Nature Reserve $ S# and Environs S

    5 THREATENED SPECIES PROFILES This section provides a profile of each of the threatened fauna species that are known to occur within Wollondilly River NR, together with a few additional threatened species that are considered highly likely to occur. The aim of these profiles is to provide: • A background on the species biology. • A summary of threats to the species. • An assessment of the species’ distribution in the Sydney Basin and South Eastern Highlands Bioregions. • A map of known records of the species in the park and the surrounding five kilometres. • An appraisal of the distribution and status of the species in Wollondilly River NR and the surrounding area. Table 3 presents all of the threatened species listed on the Atlas of NSW Wildlife within five kilometres of reserve. During these surveys four threatened bird species and one threatened mammal species were recorded within the Wollondilly River NR. One other species (Squirrel Glider) had been previously recorded in the reserve but was not recorded during the surveys. A further three of both threatened bird and mammal species were recorded outside the reserve in these surveys, while two other threatened bird species have been previously recorded in close proximity but were not during these surveys. The Yellow-bellied Glider has been recorded in Joadja NR (Mills 2002) but as it is unlikely to occur in Wollondilly River NR, no profile has been written (though records are included in Map 5). A profile has been included for Brush-tailed Rock-wallaby, though no records are in the Atlas at this stage. Table 3: Threatened Species recorded in and around Wollondilly River NR.
