    Beautiful bats, also creepy but very special swamp. Just wear shoes that can be cleaned easily, lots of bat guano on the path. Have fun!

    New trails and a boardwalk viewing platform! Always a favorite to show out-of-towners the flying foxes.

    It's a swamp alright. Water doesn't drain away.

    How do they have this swamp in the middle of the city! Very cool little area that transports you to another place. A few signboards around that explain the colour and smell of the swamp. And of course hundreds of flying foxes in the trees!

    For the person who is surprised that there is a swamp "in the middle of the city!" There used to be huge areas of swampland throughout the Sydney area. The airport is built on swampland as are whole suburbs in the inner west and south-east. The Lachlan Swamps were originally a much larger area, full of water birds & fish, a happy hunting ground for Eora & Cadigal ppl until Europeans moved in...

    Bats! Seeing thousands of beautiful flying foxes in the trees was one of the most incredible experiences of my life. Maybe the locals are used to such things, but for us Yankees it was amazing.

    What a lovely place, with a lot of different views in one place from dense trees, to open green fields to small lakes and all this is in the middle of city, nice place to run away from city life but in the at the same time are still in it. Very nice views, clean place, well taken care of. A lot of walking and a lot photos taking.

    I went as the sun was setting. At first they were just sleeping and starting to wake up. As the sun was going down they started wiggling, stretching and eventually taking flight. Thousands of them!! It was amazing to see.

    Love this place..very relaxing?

  • 4/5 Thomas N. 2 years ago on Google
    Quite small, but one of the few preserved swamps in Sydney. Might not be the same as it used to be, but the atmosphere is certainly unique from the bush and other native ecosystems.
