Starting behind the Craigie Leisure Centre off Whitfords Avenue, Craigie, this walk takes you on a circuit within the Quenda Reserve Enclosure in Craigie Bushland. Craigie Bushland is a major conservation area with several walking trails, perfect for a suburban self-guided nature walk. The bushland is well preserved and filled with the sounds of birds, making it easy to forget you are in the middle of suburbia. Quendas (southern brown bandicoots) are residents of the bush here. The area is fenced to protect the Quenda, and inside the enclosure are some amazing walk trails, sealed pathways and compacted limestone trails. The trails outside the fence are more sandy or gravelly. Throughout the reserve, you will find seating and signage with information about local flora and fauna. The trails are well signposted and are circular in nature, so you can enjoy a long walk around the reserve and back to your entry point. Dogs are prohibited within the Quenda Reserve Enclosure but are allowed on a leash outside the fenced area. Let us begin by acknowledging the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we travel today, and pay our respects to their Elders past and present.
