Moorooduc Quarry Flora and Fauna Reserve, Nature reserve in Mount Eliza, Victoria, Australia.
The reserve spans 27 hectares of land with walking trails, lookout points, and a lake formed in the former quarry site.
David Munro established the quarry in 1887, constructing a railway spur-line in 1888 to transport stone for the Baxter-Mornington branch line.
The Friends of Mount Eliza Association For Environmental Care actively participates in preservation efforts throughout the reserve.
Visitors can enter through gates on Two Bays Road, Allison Road, Canadian Bay Road, or Station Street, with main parking available on Two Bays Road.
The quarry walls contain rock formations from the Ordovician period, dating back 450 million years before the evolution of vertebrate animals.
