Beautiful reserve abutting the Monash Freeway in the noisiest section of the road in the East.

Home to several breeding pairs of Kookaburra, many Crimson Rosellas, and both Ring-tailed and Bottle-Brush Possums.

Identified by VicRoads as a high-priority area for Noise Barriers, but Federal and State governments will not provide funding. Three Scout/Guide halls and countless residents have to put up with ridiculous and ever-increasing noise levels in a beautiful section of the world.

Locals living near the reserve all report trouble sleeping because of noise level increase spiking in last 12 months with increasing traffic set to become much worse when Eastlink opens.
