Nepean River Users Log

Rowing NSW has set up a Nepean River Users Log in order to manage the flow of traffic on the Nepean River. This log is designed to show all clubs and schools the dates and times the river is expected to be in use in the hope that high traffic flow can be minimised or avoided, amenities managed properly and the safety for all rowers improved.

You can check the river height at this link.  To give some point of reference, approximately 1.10m is where water is level with the boat staging area.

The Nepean River is a shared space accommodating not only the rowing community but also the wider community. When utilising the facilities, it's important to be mindful of your surroundings and adhere to certain guidelines:

  1. Awareness of Surroundings: Please remain aware of your surroundings, especially regarding other individuals, boats on the water, and any ongoing activities in the vicinity.

  2. Respect and Courtesy: Show respect and courtesy to others using the facilities. Use polite language, observe proper etiquette, and conduct yourself in a considerate manner.

  3. Leave No Trace Principle: Be environmentally conscious. Dispose of waste responsibly by utilising the bins or by taking your waste with you upon departure.

  4. Safety and Consideration: Prioritise safety by being considerate of others' safety, whether on land or water. Maintain a safe distance from boats and equipment and follow safety protocols at all times.
