Cambewarra Range Nature Reserve

The Cambewarra Range Nature Reserve spans 1684 hectares of cliffs and plateaus, containing temperate rainforest ecosystems and various ecological habitats.

Established in 2001, the reserve integrated several smaller protected areas including Devils Glen, Red Rocks, and Black Ash reserves in 2003.

The name Cambewarra comes from the Tharawal people's language, referring to a mountain of fire based on their understanding of local volcanic activity.

The reserve requires private transportation to access, as public transport does not reach the area, with main entry points via Tourist Road or Leebold Hill Road.

The reserve houses 61 documented bird and reptile species, including endangered animals like the eastern bristlebird, sooty owl, and brush-tailed rock-wallaby.
