Hanging Rock Reserve closed due to flooding

Due to the Hanging Rock precinct flooding, the reserve closed at midday to ensure visitor safety.
The weather looks clearer over the weekend, and we anticipate the reserve will be open as usual. However, we will communicate any changes to opening hours on the weekend via the website and Facebook.

Plan your visit

Scheduled website maintenance - Saturday 8 October

Some online services such as online payments, permits and reporting an issue will be unavailable on 8 October between 8am and 12noon. We apologise for any inconvenience.
