Remembrance Nature Park, was named on the 11 November 1978 to commemorate the 60 th anniversary of the signing of the Armistice on the 11 November 1918.

Remembrance Driveway starts from Sydney to Canberra along the length of the Hume and Federal Highways, a 320 kilometres of Plantations and Native Trees.

The Great War of 1914-18, fostered a Great Community need to establish lasting Memorials to all those who served their Country. Nearly all cultures found ways of Remembering War and Honouring War Heroes.

After the World War 2 Mrs. Margaret Davis MBE, the Founding President of the Garden Club of Australia, suggested plating a living Memorial of Trees to those Australians who served in World War 2, as Trees were seen as a Symbol and Hope for the Future.

In 1954 the Royal come for the first time in Australia.
Queen Elizabeth 2 (21 April 1926- 8 September 2022) Prince Philip (10 June 1921 - 9 April 2021) each planted a Plane Tree in Macquarie Place, Sydney to mark the start of the Driveway in 1954 and the Queen Elizabeth planted a Snow Gum near the Southern corner of Australian War Memorial to mark its end. Tree died in an drought in 1990s.

Lovely walk and great views of wildlife, captured these two young fellas in the treat stalking me.

I stopped to catch my breath while thinking of al those brave men and women who lost their lives and are unable to enjoy the life we enjoy today

Great hike to an amazing view. 30mins up 30mins down

Great public BBQ spot, with fresh water taps on site. Situated just to the rear of the Australian War Memorial, & at the start of the Kokoda Rememberance Trail which goes all the way to the viewpoint at the summit of Mt. Ainsley.

Well maintained track, great views of Canberra. Take your water! Steep incline. On Saturday mornings there is a great Parkrun here :)

Really lovely location and sentiment. A huge shame that it isn't better marked on maps (Google and physical) as it was a bit tricky to find. There are a couple of bench's there to sit down and reflect on why the plaque is there. Such a huge loss of life isn't acceptable anytime or place 😪.

Went for a clean up. Was such a wonderful morning with like minded achievers. Was great seeing the are used.
Would be great to see more kids here.

Great 30min walk up to the top of Mt Ainslie. Pretty steep in places. Great views along the way. Plenty of shade.

Great walk, great views, great ice cream!

A very beautiful and peaceful place. A good starting for walks around Mt Ainslie.

Nice place for a walk or have a bbq. There is a track that will take you to the top of mount Ainslie

Love seeing the kangaroos and wandering through the trails around the mountain

Its dry!!! Not great for my knees but a great walk!!

Lovely place to hangout especially with friends and family. Ideal for family picnic.
