Yarramundi & Navua Reserve Plan of Management
Hawkesbury City Council is preparing a joint Plan of Management for Yarramundi Reserve and Navua Reserve, located at the confluence of the Grose and Hawkesbury-Nepean Rivers. The plan will guide future use, management and long-term recreation opportunities to be provided at the park.
Community consultation is a vital part of the planning process and your contribution is welcomed. Please see details in the news feed regarding opportunities to provide input.
Development of the Plan of Management does not represent a formal commitment to funding. The plan will be a guiding document; its main purpose is to consider and allow for appropriate usage and to prioritise potential capital works projects to further the recreational opportunities of the site whilst ensuring all values are protected.

Bike / walking Paths
Continuation of walking/ cycle paths around the reserve. Extending cycle/ walking paths to Nepean Estate so that nearby residents have a safe cycle / walking path to access the reserve.

Caravan Camp Park
Promote development of caravan/camp i.e big 4 on grounds of Australia house - campers that can be moved easily in case of flood. No free camping on reserve as we've seen the mess they leave.

updated facilities and kids play area
We are very local to the river (walking distance) and very regular going to the river with the kids: With the local population increasing with redbank over the last couple of years we have noticed massive increase in traffic with visitors heading to the river. On a hot day it is absolutely packed and parking is almost impossible. As the amount of visitors increase the amenities need urgent updating. Toilets, more picnic areas and bbqs and a kids play area would be extemely useful. Take a drive and have a look on the next hot day. It is much busier than many other locations in the Hawkesbury that have amazing facilities

Safe Walking Trails and More Bins
Would be fantastic to have safe walking trails on the Grose Wold side of the River to take a walk along the waterway. Maybe open up to some secret swimming spots to allow for better social distancing. The thing that has held us back form going down this summer is there are to many people and not enough safe space. Cleaning up the rest of the debree from the floods and planting some new natives would make it safer for walks as I am a bit nervous of snakes in the scrub. (I know their is always snakes but less scrub means less hidden places) A nice walk all the way along the Hawkesbury river from North Richmond would be fantastic. (Again private land but a little boardwalk would be great) Also more bins as people always seem to miss them and leave their rubbish in the sand. (Can't help stupidity but it is noticeable) Allowing booked in camping would utilise those cleared sections and bring people to the Hawkesbury too (no free camp)

Walking/Bike tracks/playground
Would love to see some safe walking and bike tracks around the reserve. Updated toilets, bbq and picnic area. A children’s playground (out of flood zone) with an indigenous theme. Earthy woods and colours.
