MANAGEMENT PLAN
Climate
The elevation of the park is low relative to the surrounding
topography thus affording some degree of shelter and comfort.
However while the site is reasonably protected from southerly
winds it is exposed to strong winds from the north to
west quarte r. Being in a steep-sided gorge the area experiences
longer than usual periods of shade and cooler temperatures
particularly in th e winter months. On calm summer days
temperatures can be very warm within the gorge. Generally
the gorge landscape offers a range of micro climates that
adds to and enriches the attraction and diversity of the
area.
