EcologyFormed by the confluence of Bare Creek and Frenchs Creek, north of {{NSWcity|Davidson}}, Middle Harbour Creek is in the Garigal National Park and flows from Mona Vale Road in the north down to Bungaroo, where the creek becomes Middle Harbour. Its catchment area is approximately {{convert|77|km2}}.[2] Access along the majority of the creek is easy with tracks from (the western shore) St Ives, East Killara, East Lindfield, (eastern shore) Belrose, Davidson, Frenchs Forest and Forestville. Day walks are popular with access to the creek along several well maintained fire trails, the better-known being the Bungaroo Track, Cascades Track, and Bare Creek track. The bushland surrounding the creek is rich in bloodwoods (Eucalyptus gummifera), scribbly gums (Eucalyptus haemastoma), and the narrow-leaved stringy bark (Eucalyptus oblonga). HistoryMiddle Harbour Creek was first explored by Governor Arthur Phillip on an expedition from Manly Cove on 15 April 1788. The intention of the expedition was to discover food. The expedition camped on 16 April at Bungaroo, where the tidal Middle Harbour finishes and the creek begins.[3] Access
