Purga Nature Reserve Trails

Boasting the largest area of endangered Swamp Tea Tree Forest in Ipswich, the Purga Nature Reserve is a haven for birds and wildlife, including koalas. Easy flat tracks allow the most inexperienced walkers the chance to enjoy this beautiful natural setting and visit the well-loved frog pond.

Come for a wander or a picnic; the Purga Nature Reserve is only 15 minutes from Ipswich Central.
