Facts and practical information

Cumberland State Forest is a forest in the Australian state of New South Wales. It is located in West Pennant Hills, Sydney. It contains 40 hectares of native forest. The original land was privately owned and was cleared in 1908. In 1938 its management was taken over by the then NSW Forestry Commission, and one third of the land was planted as an arboretum while the rest was allowed to regenerate naturally. What is seen today is more than 50 years of forest growth. ()
