Kumbartcho Sanctuary Trails

The Kumbartcho Sanctuary is six hectares of natural habitat which provides an important corridor for local fauna and flora. There are several local walking trails around the dam at the environment centre in addition to an opportunity to walk along the South Pine River to Yurarba. Kumbartcho is home to a variety of finned, feathered, freaky and furry creatures, including koalas, frogs, snakes, turtles, and possums. Its close proximity to the river allows visitors to see a range of water and shorebirds, as well as predatory raptors. The grounds are open free to the public 7 days a week between 7 am and 7 pm. The Nursery is open 9 am - 3 pm Tuesday to Friday, 8 am - 12 pm on weekends. Also open Tuesday - Friday (10 am - 2 pm) is the Environmental Education Centre.
