Timber planks form a walkway at Waratah Park Earth Sanctuary, disappearing into dense, reclaiming bushland. This structure once traversed the grounds of the former wildlife sanctuary, famously home to the Skippy television series set.

A concrete path pushes through a thick layer of eucalyptus leaf litter. Grass sprouts from cracks along its edges, narrowing the walkway to a thin grey strip. Dead branches pile against the left side. Smooth-barked gums rise overhead, their canopy filtering flat, overcast light across the ground. The air looks damp. Everything smells of bark and decomposing leaves.

The series
Waratah Park
Waratah Park sits on 13 hectares at the top of Cowan Creek, adjoining Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park. Between 1967 and 1969 it was the filming location for Skippy the Bush Kangaroo. 91 episodes were produced; the role of Skippy was played by between 9 and 15 different Eastern Grey Kangaroos. The series became Australia's first international television export, sold to the UK, Germany, Norway, the United States, and as Skippy le Kangourou in French Canada. After the Skippy production, the site operated as a wildlife tourist park until April 2007. The Metropolitan Local Aboriginal Land Council and the Duffys Forest Residents Association are now working to restore the bushland and the Ranger Headquarters film set.
