The park comprises six separate sections extending over 40 kilometres, from Stanwell Park in the north to Horsely in the south.The 30-million-year-old site was inhabited by the Wodi Wodi for 20,000 years, and some of the summits in the region are of spiritual significance for the local Aboriginal people. It also has many colonial roads which were built by Surveyor-General Thomas Mitchell and convicts during 1834.
