Muogamarra Nature Reserve is a place of unique beauty and scientific value located on the northern edge of Sydney, between Cowan and the Hawkesbury River. Pronounced Moo-o-ga-marra, it is an Aboriginal word of the Awabagal meaning ‘preserve the future’ which indicates the purpose this area has been dedicated.
The reserve covers approximately 2,500 ha of pristine bushland and other important environments and is currently managed by the NSW National Parks and Wildlife.
Together with the interesting geological formations, the area is very well known for the Aboriginal engraving sites and early European heritage sites, including evidence of a convict road and associated school.
