Beaconsfield Nature Conservation Reserve
The Beaconsfield Nature Conservation Reserve is a stunning place that houses a wide range of amazing animals and plants. While many of the species found in BNCR used to be common throughout Victoria, some have become endangered since European settlement. This reserve protects many species and is an important remnant of what was once common in the landscape.
The Beaconsfield Reservoir became a Nature Conservation Reserve in 2005. Nature Conservation Reserves are used to protect endangered and rare species, critical habitats, and other animals and plants that are of conservation importance. In 2005, the Committee of Management for BNCR was established by the Cardinia Environment Coalition. The main purpose of BNCR was to protect flora & fauna.
BNCR covers 172ha. It is located in Cardinia Shire, near Melbourne’s South East growth corridor. This reserve is notable for its historical and environmental value. It has a rich history of Indigenous cultural heritage, mining gold and construction of the reservoir and aqueduct.
