Central Gardens Nature Reserve is a bushland nature reserve managed by Cumberland City Council in Merrylands West, in Sydney's western suburbs, New South Wales. The reserve provides a green urban refuge featuring remnant native bushland and wetland habitats that support local wildlife, including birds and small mammals, within an otherwise densely populated urban area. Walking trails wind through the reserve, offering visitors opportunities for birdwatching, nature observation, and peaceful outdoor recreation close to the city. The reserve serves as an important ecological corridor and community green space, protecting native flora and fauna while providing an accessible natural environment for residents and families seeking a connection with nature in greater western Sydney.
