Visit Muogamarra in spring as the reserve transforms into a brilliant display of colour when wildflowers come into bloom. You’ll see waratahs, majestic angophoras, old-man banksias, pink boronias and delicate native orchids. The reserve is home to many native animals like echidnas, and birdwatchers might glimpse a soaring wedge-tail eagle or an iconic lyrebird.
To visit Muogamarra Nature Reserve, join a Discovery guided tour and discover the secrets of this special place from our volunteer guides. You'll get the chance to see Aboriginal rock engravings and learn about the area's significance on a Muogamarra Aboriginal heritage walk. Visitors will need to pre-book and pay for Discovery tours online as numbers are limited and places can fill up quickly.
If you'd prefer to take things at your own pace, simply pack a picnic and a pair of binoculars and take in spectacular views on a self-guided walk. This is only possible during the 6 weekends that the reserve is open to the public. If you're interested in doing a self-guided walk, track notes are available at the registration desk at Muogamarra Visitor Centre.
