The controlled burn will be undertaken on Tuesday evening and throughout Wednesday.
Residents are urged to close windows and monitor conditions if the smoke starts causing concern. However, if anyone sees an unattended fire they are urged to call triple-zero.
Prescribed burns are planned to help reduce fire hazards for upcoming bushfire seasons.
The burn will be managed by the NSW Rural Fire Service.
