Road access in kanangra boyd

Postby Rossbro » Fri 27 Mar, 2020 10:59 am

Hi there
Can anybody advise if the road to Kanangra LO and the road to the Unirover Trail head are open?
And any comments on the extent of fire damage along the Kowmung downstream of Morong Deep?
Thanks
Ross

According to NPWS there is extensive fire damage and the whole park is closed. See second warning down: https://www.nationalparks.nsw.gov.au/vi ... cal-alerts

Cheers,
Michael.

My understanding is that the road bridge over the Boyd River is out of action. I also understand that the bridge is the responsibility of Oberon Council not NPWS so inquiries about its reopening should be directed to council.

Asked about this a while back. Oberon office said the whole park would be closed for the best part of this year, and that the road has sustained substantial damage (flood and fire, including Boyd river bridge)
