Puckeys Estate Nature Reserve is an annex of Wollongong Botanic Garden. It is a rare coastal habitat that includes rainforest, dunes and marshland, and home to around 130 different types of birds and several endangered plant communities. This interpretive walk will highlight the work of Council and Bushcare volunteers in protecting and restoring these endangered plant communities.
On this fascinating walk you'll learn about its diverse native species and the threats faced by weeds. The walk will also include a visit to the historic Seafields House located within the reserve.
