Protecting and restoring large landscape linkages in the Nightcap Range Stage 1

The project will rehabilitate Lowland Subtropical rainforest by control of serious weed threats from Weeds of National Significance (Lantana and exotic vines including Madiera Vine) and other environmental weeds in World Heritage listed Nightcap Park as well as adjacent Whian Whian State Conservation Area, Goonengerry National Park and recent additions in Wanganui Gorge. The project will extend survey of weeds on adjacent private property to ensure an important regional corridor hub and downstream areas do not degrade by emerging new weeds. Key conservation values will be protected by improved public access along walking tracks, and areas for other recreational users. Undertaking these actions will ensure ongoing outcomes for the conservation of World Heritage values.
