Engage with a diverse range of flora and fauna as you stop and listen to the many bird calls, take in the bushland smells, touch bark, leaves and rocks, and observe amazing wildflower displays. Interpretive signage is located along the way to point out features of interest and help you to interact with this inspiring landscape.

This bushland once formed part of the seasonal range of Aboriginal family groups. The surrounding landscape contributed to their food, medicine, shelter and other material and cultural needs. Signs that remain of their way of life could potentially include occupation sites, rock engravings, middens, scar trees, and artefacts. Please respect any sites or objects you may come across. They hold a profound significance for present day descendants of these communities and are also protected by law.

The trail passes through an ecological community known as Blackbutt Gully Forest. The dominant canopy species include Sydney Red Gum (Angophora costata), Blackbutt (Eucalyptus pilularis), Red Bloodwood (E. gummifera), and Turpentine (Syncarpia glomulifera). The older trees contain hollows which provide vital nesting sites for many native birds, mammals and insects. Can you see any currently being used?
