The four nature reserves are part of a system of conservation reserves around Kangaroo Valley that includes the nearby Barren Grounds Nature Reserve, Budderoo National Park and Morton National Park.
Kangaroo River, Barrengarry, Cambewarra Range and Rodway Nature Reserves protect samples of the natural and cultural heritage of the northern Shoalhaven. They are regionally significant for their rainforest communities, populations of threatened species such as the eastern bristlebird, brush-tailed rock-wallaby and long-nose potoroo, and play an important part in protecting the magnificent scenery of the district.
