Yanga Update 14.10.24

YANGA NATIONA PARK HAS WATERWAYS THAT MAY BE AFFECTED AT TIMES BY BLUE-GREEN ALGAE – PLEASE CHECK LATEST UPDATE

Yanga Lake has returned to an AMBER Alert for Blue Green Algae. The lake is safe for recreation but conditions could change rapidly once the weather warms up.

We are now in the RFS declared “Bush Fire Danger Period” and so Park Fire Bans will be in place from Monday 14^th October for Yanga and Kyalite reserves. No solid fuel fires are permitted during this period but Gas BBQ’s are ok with regulations unless a Total Fire Ban is in place.
