One Tree Hill Regional Park

One Tree Hill Regional Park (1090 hectares), one of Bendigo's major open space recreational areas, is known for its colourful wildflower displays featuring wattles, wax-flowers and a variety of daisies. The large varieties of orchids found in the park are of great interest to wildflower enthusiasts.

The One Tree Hill Regional Park is now a part of the Greater Bendigo National Park.

Flora & FaunaNative fauna found in the park includes wallabies, lace monitors and other species including the rare Brush-tailed Phascogale. Many bird species can also be observed.

The forest is a result of 100 years of regrowth including open forests of Red Stringybark, Red Ironbark, Yellow Gum, Red Box and Long-leaf Box. An understorey of shrubs, annuals and grasses is also present.
