About the Place…

The Ginninderry Conservation Corridor will comprise a total area of 580 hectares - 360 hectares in the ACT and 220 hectares in NSW. The west the Corridor is bounded by the eastern bank of the Murrumbidgee River and the north by Ginninderra Creek in NSW. In the east, the Reserve abuts the new cross-border Ginninderry urban development near the ACT suburbs of Holt and Macgregor and extends south to Stockdill Drive and Woodstock Nature Reserve in the ACT. The Conservation Corridor incorporates the northern end of the Murrumbidgee River Corridor (to which the Statutory Murrumbidgee River Corridor Plan applies) in the ACT and will eventually incorporate an area of former agricultural land in NSW.
