Blue Mountains City Council is creating a masterplan for the Gordon Falls Reserve precinct to help guide nature and culture-based recreation at the popular location.
Working with experienced consultants, council has been reviewing:
- The renewal and upgrade of the existing amenities building at the Reserve
- The existing park infrastructure including seating, tables and the children's playground
- Carparking in the Reserve and surrounding streets, to determine capacity and possible improvements
- Upgrades to the walking track and Elysian and Olympian Rock Lookouts
- The feasibility of an accessible walking track to a lookout within the Reserve.
"Council has already been engaged with the community on the masterplan for the Blue Mountains Southern Escarpment," said Blue Mountains mayor Mark Greenhill. "As part of that project, Gordon Falls Reserve Precinct was identified as a priority area for the preparation of its own Masterplan.
"With the beautiful Olympian and Elysium Rock lookouts nestled within the precinct, Gordon Falls Reserve is a precious natural area for many in our local community and beyond.
"We are so very fortunate to have spaces like this in our own backyard and it's vital we work together to ensure they are well managed and maintained.
"With that in mind, the community's feedback is such a crucial element in the master planning process. I encourage everyone with an interest in this special site to attend the information session, learn more about the masterplan and council's vision for Gordon Falls Reserve precinct."
