Information

Evidence of the area's rich history of European occupation can still be seen in the relics of agriculture, military training and immigration. The surrounding Cumberland Plain woodland ecosystems once covered much of what is now western Sydney, but are now threatened, mainly by urban expansion.
Walk the history trail and imagine what life was like in the years of the Casual Labour Farm, Agricultural Training Farm, migrant hostel or military occupation. The walking track around Longneck Lagoon provides excellent birdwatching opportunities. Picnic facilities and information are available at the Scheyville office. Camping is not permitted in the park but you can camp in nearby Cattai National Park (bookings essential).
Access 45 km north-west of Sydney, 6 km east of Windsor on Windsor Road via Boundary Road and Old Pitt Town Road (from Parramatta), or on Pitt Town Road and Saunders Road (from Windsor).
