Gresswell Forest Walk
About this event
A circuit walk in the North East of Melbourne, near Watsonia.
GRADE | LENGTH | TYPE: Easy 8 km circuit walk.
ACTIVITY DESCRIPTION: The Gresswell Nature Conservation Reserves, made up of Gresswell Forest, Gresswell Hill and Gresswell Habitat Link, protect 70 hectares of important flora and fauna habitat. Experience the area's diverse vegetation and abundant wildlife on the reserves' many walking trails, and explore this precious pocket of wilderness in Melbourne's north-east.

It aims to restore and preserve the land in a state as much as possible like that known to Aboriginals who lived in the area 200 years ago.
