Warragai Creek Nature Reserve

Warragai Creek Nature Reserve, established in January 1999, spans 186 hectares in the Clarence Valley, approximately 17 km northeast of Grafton. Formerly part of Southgate State Forest, it plays a crucial role in conserving the Clarence Lowlands Spotted Gum Forest Ecosystem, a low-elevation area that has been extensively cleared and is poorly conserved. The reserve provides habitat for threatened species, including the endangered weeping paperbark and native milkwort, and is part of a regionally significant koala population. No formal recreational facilities are provided.
