Jerrawangala National Park - New South Wales

Jerrawangala is located on the road between Nowra and Sassafras in South Eastern New South Wales.

From the top of the escarpment, at a lookout, there are beautiful views of the escarpment and the forests below - stretching through to the coast.

I went a couple of months after a fierce bushfire through the area.  I saw a lot of destruction - and a lot of regeneration - and some signs of wildlife.





The wildflowers were out in force - an amazing variety.











Of particular interest to me were the grass trees (which grow very slowly, for hundreds of years) and the banksia.
