Lane Cove National Park

Lane Cove National Park is a protected area of 670 hectares located within metropolitan Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. Situated approximately 10 kilometres north-west of the Sydney central business district, the park follows the course of the Lane Cove River as it flows south-east into Sydney Harbour. Despite being completely surrounded by urban development, the park preserves significant areas of native bushland, offering a remarkable example of how natural ecosystems can persist within a major city. The park features a diverse range of vegetation communities including wet and dry sclerophyll forest, heathland, mangroves, and tidal flats, creating a surprisingly rich ecological mosaic given its suburban context. Established in 1938, it represents one of the earliest protected areas in the Sydney region and serves as an important green lung for the city's northern suburbs.
