Yellomundee Regional Park is north-west of Penrith, on the eastern escarpment of the Blue Mountains. It stretches from Yarramundi to Mount Riverview and Emu Heights.

This park is situated near a large population centre and helps to protect nature close to and within the city landscape. It preserves many plant and animal species, and acts as a much needed wildlife corridor for the area.

Only about one fifth of Yellomundee Regional Park has been modified in the past. It contains sites of cultural and historic importance and large areas of natural bushland.

The park also contains alluvial and riverine plant communities, and potentially is home to rare and vulnerable plant and animal species.
