With Canberra surrounded by seemingly endless nature reserves and mountain ranges, you can be sure there are some fascinating plant and wildlife species calling the region home. One place that provides you with considerable insight into local conservation efforts is Mulligans Flat Woodland Sanctuary.
The reserve is where reintroduced species can be supported in a safe environment, while scientists also research the importance of our woodland environments. Visitors can take part in daytime or twilight tours, where volunteer ecologists take you on a journey through the sanctuary. Plus, 2021 will see the launch of a contemporary visitor centre that combines coffee and conservation in an innovative setting.
