Terrick Terrick National Park, Nature reserve in Victoria, Australia
Terrick Terrick National Park is a nature reserve in Victoria with Box-Ironbark forests, northern grasslands, and granite hills. The park spans 3,880 hectares and features a mix of woodland and open landscape habitats.
Terrick Terrick National Park was declared in June 1988, covering 3,880 hectares about 4 kilometres north of Mitiamo. The land protects one of the last remaining remnants of Box-Ironbark forest and the northern grass plains of Victoria. It lies close to Kow Swamp, where palaeontological finds have given insight into the origins of Indigenous Australians.
The land is managed by Parks Victoria in partnership with Traditional Owners who maintain deep ties to the area. This collaboration shapes how the land is cared for and experienced by visitors today.
There is one basic campground in the park, and drinking water is not available, so visitors must carry their own supply. Walking tracks start from the camping area, and the park lies 4 km north of Mitiamo and 65 km north of Bendigo.
Terrick Terrick lies within the Patho Plains Important Bird Area, identified by BirdLife International chiefly for its Plains-wanderer conservation value. The park's plains are among the last remaining strongholds for this endangered Australian endemic bird.
