Echo Bank Bush is an area of remnant indigenous flora, maintained in the modern Conservationist/Ecological tradition.

The steep riverbanks in the Echo Bank Bush, together with those at Hammond Park, are thought to be the only remnant stands of multi canopy bush in the Hamilton area.

In the longer term, Hamilton Gardens has plans to improve access into this area with a boardwalk and decks along to the cliff face.

The Landscape Garden Collection focuses on landscape garden traditions that have been inspired by different philosophical perspectives throughout history. Landscapes as artefacts contain a richness of expression and a subtlety which can illuminate our relationship with the natural world.
