| Gunbower
Island lies in between the Murray River and the Gunbower Creek.
Magnificent red gum and box forests cover 80% of this 50 kilometre
long island.
The island
is home to a diverse range of wildlife including some 160 species
of native waterbirds and numerous species of native animals. Because
of it’s totally natural state, Gunbower Island is perfectly
suited for bushwalking, canoeing and bird watching.
The Gunbower
Forest is home to giant Redgums, some over 400 years old. This forest
offers the visitor a really unique wildlife experience. However,
recently artists, photographers and wood workers have tried to capture
the beauty of these trees in a different way.
The Gunbower
Forest is a well used and much loved forest, a haven for wildlife
and a source of enjoyment for those that love the outdoors.
