Jingellic, Bogandyera and Clarkes Hill Nature Reserves Plan of Management
The reserves protect an area of previously poorly conserved south-eastern highlands eucalypt forests. Recent studies have indicated a diverse range of communities, including some threatened and regionally uncommon plant and animal species.
Bogandyera Nature Reserve, which is dissected by Mannus Creek, conserves a regionally rare example of relatively intact riparian vegetation. Mannus Creek consists of a visually spectacular and unique water sculpted metamorphic rock river bed containing a number of rock pools and waterfalls. Three sites along Mannus Creek within Bogandyera Nature Reserve have been used intermittently for low key recreation including camping and fishing.
