Temporary closure of pedestrian access to the Lake islands

Following heavy visitor use over the spring and summer period, the Alfred Nicholas Memorial Garden's Lake Islands have been temporarily closed to all pedestrian access.

Excess foot traffic causes the island's fragile grass cover to compact and die. This causes the exposed bare soil to harden, which presents an increased visitor risk.

The islands are temporarily closed each year (during the wetter months), to allow them to repair and rehabilitate.

Pedestrian access to the islands is expected to re-open from Friday 1 September 2023.
