About this place

What to expect

Stretching across approximately 42,000 hectares, this vast state forest is a breathtaking mix of towering pine plantations, lush native vegetation, and winding trails. Offering a unique and immersive experience for nature lovers and 4WD adventurers, with a network of unsealed tracks that are best explored by four-wheel drive. As you travel through the endless rows of majestic pine trees, keep an eye out for a variety of native fauna and birdlife. Their presence adds to the area's natural charm and sense of discovery. The scale of the forest can be deceiving, it's easy to feel lost in the peacefulness of the surroundings. But that's part of the appeal. Whether you're planning a day trip or just passing through, the forest offers a peaceful, scenic escape into the heart of the region's natural landscape.
