The Macquarie Marshes in New South Wales are a recognized Ramsar wetland of international importance. Covering an extensive area of 200 square kilometers, the marshes are home to a diverse range of wildlife, including threatened species such as the brolga and magpie goose. They also hold cultural significance for the Wailwan People.
Although the nature reserve does not have visitor facilities, guided tours are available through the NSW National Parks during specific times of the year. These tours provide a unique opportunity to explore the marshes and learn about their important ecosystem. Additionally, the "Burrima" boardwalk offers a 2 km immersive experience through different vegetation communities of the marshes.
The Macquarie Marshes are a scenic landscape of Common Reed and River Red Gum, making it an attractive destination for nature enthusiasts and birdwatchers. While access to the nature reserve is restricted, the guided activities and boardwalk provide visitors with valuable opportunities to appreciate the unique biodiversity and cultural significance of the marshes.
