Bellview Wetlands Reserve

Discover the hidden gem of Bellview Wetland Reserve, nestled just out of sight as you drive south on SH8 near Lawrence. What began as a simple pasture-draining project transformed into a thriving six-hectare wetland, thanks to Steven Robertson's decision to embrace the land's natural inclination for wetness. With a focus on preserving native flora and fauna, the wetland provides a sanctuary for freshwater species like mussels, yabbies, tree frogs, and galaxiids.. Immerse yourself in this environmental treasure that enhances water quality, biodiversity, and flood control. Bellview offers scenic walking tracks surrounded by native bush and bird. Wander along the river's edge and consider your next destination in Lawrence.

OPEN Sat & Sun 10am - 6pm
