Major: Lane Cove National ParkLane Cove National Park occupies a bush land valley in Northern Metropolitan Sydney, Australia, extending along the Lane Cove River from East Ryde, below Fullers Bridge, Chatswood to Turramurra and Pennant Hills. Lane Cove National Park is now open at all entrances following major improvements, which finished in late 2007. The Park is totally surrounded by urban development, with approximately 2000 properties adjoining the Park.
