HARTMANN PARK WALK

walking trackKey Features

1. Grass Trees - the Xanthorrhoea johnsonii is a unique and beautiful native species, possessing the ability to re-shoot after fire and also the bearer of one of the most peculiar foliage displays.

2. Sandstone Shelf - the Hartmann Park walk encompasses a shelf of granite rock which offers some magnificent landscape features.

3. Soil Variety - the Hartmann Park walk possesses an interesting variety of soils, from grainy sandstone to thick granite, allowing for a diverse range of native species to flourish.

4. Human influence has been minimised along the track and on the northern side of the creek, allowing for a largely undisturbed natural ecosystem to thrive throughout the Hartmann Park walk.
