The Centennial Glen area is not part of any National Park. This provides some advantages, such as allowing rock climbers to use the walls, and allowing dog walking. The disadvantage is that the NSW Government can claim that it is not protected and build a road through it.
The following documents discuss the natural and cultural heritage of the Blue Mountains.
