About the reserves

Bungalook Conservation Reserves is a group of adjacent reserves in Kilsyth South owned by Maroondah City Council, Trust for Nature and Melbourne Water. The reserves consist of a range of vegetation types, including wetlands, woodlands and scrub, and are open to the public through a network of tracks. There is an impressive display of wildflowers in spring and the reserves are a haven for a number of rare and nationally significant species. In the late 1980s, a campaign led by MEG resulted in the local council purchasing what is now an important section of the reserves, allowing the precious habitat and species to be protected.
