Hike Overview

The magnificent white gums of Evercreech are amongst the tallest trees of their type in Australia. Interpretation signs tell visitors the story of these majestic trees. An excellent reserve for a family picnic gathering.

Track Grade

Grade 2 (Easy) - A Gentle Introduction to Inclines: Grade 2 on the AWTGS represents easy walking tracks that offer a slightly more challenging experience compared to Grade 1. Similar to Grade 1, no prior bushwalking experience is required. The track surface is typically hardened or compacted and may have gentle hill sections or occasional steps. The total distance of a Grade 2 walk is typically no greater than 10 kilometers. These walks are still suitable for families with a bit more experience or those seeking a gentle introduction to some inclines.

Tips

Toilets, picnic tables, picnic shelter, fireplaces and firewood.

Track to viewing platform may suit some wheelchair users and those with strollers.

Walking here is not recommended in strong winds or stormy weather trees and limbs may fall.

Dogs welcome on a leash. Camping, firearms or bicycles are not allowed.

These north-east forest reserves are attractive spots to break your journey on the A4 between the Midland Highway and the east coast. To reach them, turn left on the B43 at Fingal towards Mathinna. An interesting alternative route continues beyond Mathinna, taking gravel roads through the Mount Victoria Forest Reserve to reach the rich north-east farmlands at Ringarooma.
