Limpinwood Nature Reserve, Nature reserve in Northern Rivers, Australia

Limpinwood Nature Reserve encompasses 2,647 hectares of subtropical rainforest and wet sclerophyll forest along the New South Wales-Queensland border.

The area functioned as a Forest Reserve before its designation as a Flora Reserve in 1963, with timber extraction operations using bullock teams.

The reserve forms part of the Gondwana Rainforests of Australia, receiving UNESCO World Heritage recognition in 1986 for its ecological significance.

Access to the reserve requires detailed topographic maps and can only be achieved through Lamington National Park in Queensland.

Two waterways, Hidden Creek and Finches Creek, flow eastward through virgin old growth forest containing red cedar and white beech trees.
