Always lovely and quiet for our puppy and bub walk. Will be great when the top is open again.

Absolutely great place for wander. Informative signs telling you what's about and get this...there are dog leads attached to the fence for your dog (or cat if you're that way inclined) so as not to let them interfere with wildlife. There's more than one walk. I love this place

A nice bit of bush, but very soggy after rain.

Great find. Beautiful natural parkland tucked in behind East Bowral. Easy walking tracks, all grassed, which follow the boundaries of the reserve. Superb large gums on display, lots of birdlife. Very secluded and peaceful. We took our little Aussie Terrier who loved it (on leash only). Also some beautiful homes nearby if you want a respectful sticky beak.

A lovely area behind the busy Bowral township. Probably the most ideal location to walk through the bush looking for Koalas. They are not easy to locate and towards sunset seems the better time, but beware of gate closing times. The walks are level and easy and on a sunny day, delightful.
