Rationale:
Most adventure cyclists arrive in the Park by motor vehicle. The Royal has extensive public road access to the start of trails and track heads, whereas there is no public road access in Heathcote National Park. |
 |
|
The Woronora Way shared use section utilises a linear management road and as such is much more attractive to individual recreational cyclists and families than to the adventure cyclists. However, measures should be put in place to ensure that cycling is kept to the Dam Road at all times.
Clear signage explaining the reasons why cyclists are prohibited from the Bullawaring Track, and an sympathetically designed bike parking stand are two measures which might help solve the problem of inappropriate access on to the track.
Mirang Road Fire Trail and the management trail along the Yarrawarra Ridge form a potential alternative shared route (see routes W4-B3, W4-B4) to Waterfall. |
