This
park includes the former Whipstick and Kamarooka State Parks, One Tree Hill
Regional Park, Mandurang State Forest and Sandhurst State Forest and spans
17 007 hectares. The park contains some of the highest quality Box-Ironbark
forest in the Bendigo area, along with broombush mallee, grassy woodlands
and Kamarooka mallee. The park conserves some of north-central Victoria's
most outstanding natural features.
The park itself is the product of intensive use over the past 150 years from
gold mining, land selection, forestry, and eucalyptus oil production. Many
significant relics of these industries, particularly the gold mining and eucalyptus
oil industries, remain in the park today.
Location
The Greater Bendigo National Park is 8 km north of Bendigo. Follow the Loddon Valley Highway to Eaglehawk and turn right into Raywood Road and right into Leshe Street, which becomes Whipstick Road.
