Overview

"Yass Gorge, stretching from Flat Rock Crossing to the Yass Dam wall, is a wonderful natural treasure in the middle of Yass and an ideal place to visit and learn about the geology, the Traditional Ngunnawal owners, rare native plants and animals and much more. Work is being undertaken to restore the Gorge to its original vegetation and habitat values - this is a work in progress"
- From the introduction of 'Welcome to Yass Gorge, by Geoff Robertson and Ryl Parker
