Neerigen Brook Reserve Adventures

Neerigen Brook Reserve is a conservation area located near the town of Mundijong, approximately 45 kilometers south of Perth in Western Australia. The reserve protects remnant native vegetation within a rapidly developing part of the Peel region and serves as important habitat for a diverse array of local wildlife including various bird species and native flora. Its landscape features gently rolling terrain with mixed jarrah, marri, and banksia woodlands accompanied by seasonal wetland areas along the watercourse of Neerigen Brook. The reserve has historical significance tied to the Noongar people, who traditionally cared for and used the land’s natural resources. Today, Neerigen Brook Reserve combines environmental conservation with recreational opportunities such as walking, birdwatching, and photography. The walking tracks provide gentle trails that meander through bushland, enabling visitors to experience the region’s biodiversity. Signage throughout the reserve educates visitors on local plants and wildlife. The reserve also plays a role in protecting water catchments and maintaining environmental health amidst suburban growth. Its proximity to Mundijong and other nearby towns makes it accessible for short visits or day hikes. While no developed campgrounds exist within the reserve, it remains a quiet and valuable natural area for local residents and nature enthusiasts looking for an outdoor retreat.
