Flora and fauna Hornsby Shire Council is directly responsible for 2,000 hectares of bushland, much of it adjoining Berowra Valley National and Regional Park.
Waterways The beautiful mix of sandstone cliffs and gorges, open waterways, secluded bays and natural vegetation make the waterways in Hornsby Shire one of the most visually spectacular waterways in New South Wales, a popular site for a large number of recreational visitors each year. The area is also rich in Aboriginal and European history.
Sustainability Hornsby Shire Council provides education and resources to help its residents live more sustainably. By taking simple sustainable measures at home, we can contribute significantly to the protection of our bushlands and waterways.
