| 17 Dec, Fri 10:05AM | Neighbourhood walk 22: Sheldon forest | ||||
| Grade:2/6 | Length | 9km | 230m | Sydney Branch | |
| (SWAG) Esther | |||||
   This walk will be led by Heather Lakiss. RSVP direct to heatherlakiss@gmail.com The track meanders through the beautiful bushland of Sheldon Forest, along ridge tops, through open forest on the hill slopes and down to the creek side, following a stream that boasts a number of small waterfalls. The forest is one of the few remaining
pieces of the Blue Gum high forest in the Sydney Basin. It is of high conservation status because it contains some of the last remnants of the endangered ecological communities. Echidnas, bowerbirds, water dragons, golden whistlers, pardalotes and powerful owls have been seen. We will check out Rofe Park as well.
