message: The Australian Heritage database lists this as a citation for the above claim:
* Goldstein, W.  (Ed) 1979.  Australia's 100 years of national parks.  National Parks and Wildlife Service, Sydney
and I assume that this may have something similar:
* Goldstein, W.  1976.  Royal National Park.  National Parks and Wildlife Service publication.  Government Printers.  Sydney.
The claim is also queried at Wilderness and could do with a good cite. Bleakcomb (talk) 02:29, 22 May 2009 (UTC)

replies: text: Well that's nice, but evidence rather than assertion is required before making edits that conflict with references. Mark Marathon (talk) 22:55, 1 November 2014 (UTC)

text:  Just to clarify, Wikipedia is an international encyclopaedia, not just a US one. Mackinac is sometimes claimed to be the second oldest national park in the US, although that claim depends on some fairly specific finagling about terms, including ignoring the fact that is isn't a national park at all and hasn't been for  150 years. However i can find no reliable sources whatsoever that contend that Mackinac is the world's second oldest national park. That would be hard sell considering that the area isn't a national park. Anyway, the statement in this article is well referenced, so please don't delete it again. Mark Marathon (talk) 03:59, 2 November 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: It is clear that Australia's claim requires careful finagling of the dates and terms but there is no doubt that Mackinac National Park was founded in 1875 which is before 1879. Royal National Park may claim to be the second oldest surviving national park which is what the references given here seem to claim. Rmhermen (talk) 22:12, 13 November 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  Reference for "world's second national park" 

message: I know when it says 29km from Sydney it means the city of Sydney (or cbd), but the way this article is worded makes it sound as if the park is separate from Sydney as a whole, despite the fact that it's in the Sutherland shire. I think it needs a rewording. Anoldtreeok (talk) 08:48, 29 August 2010 (UTC)
