Middle Brother National Park Plan of Management

Approximately 1,090 hectares of the park is dedicated as part of The Three Brothers Mountains Aboriginal Place, which also includes South Brother and North Brother Mountains. The declaration of an Aboriginal Place over the area signifies the spiritual importance of the mountains to the local Aboriginal people.

Middle Brother Mountain is an important part of the east-west habitat corridor between coastal reserves such as Crowdy Bay National Park, Dooragan National Park and Queens Lake Nature Reserve, and reserved areas immediately east of the Comboyne Plateau.

The park contains a diverse range of ecosystems as a result of its varied geology, rich soils, and range of elevations, aspects and slopes. Threatened species include the giant barred frog (Mixophyes iteratus) and Three Brothers wattle ( Acacia courtii).
