Update:
"Barringo Reserve" now included in the Macedon Regional Park.

Control and management of the Barringo Reserve changed in October 2006 when the Macedon Regional Park was officially proclaimed.
The crown land section that includes the picnic grounds and toilet has now become part of the Macedon Regional Park and control has passed from the Macedon Ranges Shire Council to Parks Victoria.
The fenced section south of Shannons road including the Macedon Pony Club licence area is owned by the Macedon Ranges Shire Council and will continue under council control.
