Ferntree Gully Reserve
Ferntree Gully is a highly scenic rainforest area 17 kilometres north of Rylstone. There are many walking tracks at Ferntree Gully that take you down into the cool narrow fern tree-studded valley floor, and/or around the top edge of the rocks where you can get an overview of the valley and the unusual rock formations on either side. Loop walk takes you through unique plant communities ranging from western dry sclerophyll to lush rain forest in and around a deep and narrow gully of eroded sandstone rock
Plants to look out for include large fig trees and the Pandora pandoreana with its entangled maze of roots. In the valley itself are many varieties of ferns and other rainforest plants including rock orchids, some of which are unique to the area.
Keep an eye out for a lyre bird, rare powerful owl, scrub turkey or a glossy black cockatoo. Echidnas, marsupial mice and several species of snake are also found here, along with grey kangaroos, wombats and wallabies.
