Holey Plains State Park
The Holey Plains State Park covers an area of 10,638 hectares and is best accessed from Rosedale via the Willung – Rosedale Road and then the Rosedale – Stradbroke Road (which are sealed). Once in the park a network of sandy roads and tracks offer opportunities to explore the park, with some tracks being narrow and winding, and sometimes sandy with steeper grades.
The park is of interest because of its native flora and fauna, all protected by a series of low sandy ridges.
Numerous species of frogs can be heard in the many swamps within the park. Swamp Wallabies, Emus and Echidnas can often be seen, especially on the edge of tracks and firebreaks. Night life includes Ringtail Possums, wombats, Owlet-Nightjars and bats. Birds are abundant.
The park contains over 530 species of plants which makes it one of the most floristically diverse parks in Victoria. Common Eucalyptus includes stringy barks and peppermints. Other common plants are Saw Banksia's, tea-trees, bush peas, wattles, heaths and 25 species of orchids.
Drives which are particularly scenic are West Boundary Track, Long Ridge track, Wildflower Track, Jacks Track, South Boundary track, and Merrimans Creek.
A number of walking tracks also exist throughout the park. Banksia Forest Walking Track (1km - 20 minutes), located near the picnic area at Holey Hill, leads around the northern slopes of the hill. The Long Swamp Walking Track (3.2km - 1.5 hours return) starts near the tower and leads to the largest swamp in the park.
Camping and picnic areas and toilet are located high on this hill.
A FTF certificate awaits the first to find.
