Access to the Mt Eliza track is closed annually between 1 September until early March to protect nesting sooty terns (Onychoprion fuscata) and their young.
The trail and summit provide important breeding grounds for the seabirds. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
In the lead up to the annual closure, LHIB’s Environment team have recently undertaken important weeding work in known nesting habitats in this area.
