This conversation area at the base of Mount Mackenzie in order to preserve old-growth forests. It contains a water hole, a rock pool, and remains of The Common Aboriginal settlement (1930s-1980s). The reserve is closed to vehicles (gate is on Mount Mackenzie Road) but visitors are free to explore on foot - information signs on site. Good for birdwatching.
A preserved railway precinct - the railway line joined Sydney to Brisbane in 1886 but the line closed almost 100 years later.
