Monkerai Nature Reserve Plan of Management

Monkerai Nature Reserve lies within an identified regional wildlife corridor that links Barrington Tops National Park with other key habitat areas in the lower Hunter Valley. The spotted gum - grey gum vegetation association which occurs over the majority of the reserve is considered regionally significant and poorly represented within conservation reserves.

A variety of native animals have been recorded either within the reserve or within 5 kilometres of the reserve, including 11 threatened species.

The New South Wales National Parks and Wildlife Act 1974 requires that a plan of management be prepared for each nature reserve. A plan of management is a legal document that outlines how an area will be managed in the years ahead.
