Gazing at Turimetta Headland Reserve, one can almost hear whispers of ancient Aboriginal clans. Turimetta Headland Reserve, nestled between Warriewood and Turimetta Beaches, holds a rich history. The name “Turimetta” itself likely originates from a local Aboriginal clan or family name, possibly meaning “a beautiful place”. Turimetta Headland Reserve became a protected area in 1964, thanks to Warringah Council. It’s officially designated a Wildlife Protection Area. The reserve boasts diverse vegetation communities. These communities provide habitat for various threatened and significant fauna species. Winter-flowering Banksias attract flocks of migratory and nomadic honey eaters and lorikeets. Keen-eyed bird watchers might spot smaller raptors like the Black-shouldered Kite and Australian Kestrel. Occasionally, majestic White-bellied Sea-eagles and even the threatened Osprey grace the skies above Turimetta Headland Reserve. The Bicentennial Walkway, established in 1988, winds through Turimetta Headland Reserve. It offers stunning coastal views and access to the headland, beaches, and rock platforms. Although the Turimetta Trig Station’s post and vanes are missing, its concrete base remains. The walkway also leads to a viewing point overlooking the dramatic Warriewood Blowhole. Turimetta Headland Reserve stands as a testament to the collaborative efforts of volunteer bush care workers, the state government, and local councils. Their dedication has helped restore and preserve this natural gem for generations to come. A visit here offers a chance to connect with nature, history, and the enduring spirit of this special place.
