Chauncy Vale Wildlife Sanctuary is visited by bushwalkers, bird watchers, field naturalist groups, picnicking family groups and school parties. Some formed tracks lead to points of interest such as Secret Cave, Brown's Caves Creek and Guvy's Lagoon. Near the main carpark is an information shelter from where a path leads up and through the garden to the house where Nan Chauncy's work and items of interest are displayed. Day Dawn, the house at Chauncy Vale, is of particular interest as the home of distinguished children's author, Nan Chauncy (1900-1970).
