See a fascinating display of artefacts, photographs and documents showing what life was like for settler-Australians, their descendants and others over the past 200 years in Tidbinbilla, Tharwa, Namadgi and the surrounding region.
Join us for an interactive experience where kids will have the opportunity to look at our local Macroinvertebrates, also known as Waterbugs, up close.
Take a walk with our ranger around the newly upgraded Church Rock heritage loop. You will walk through historic remains and learn about what life was like as an early European settler in the valley. Other highlights include fantastic views and of course a visit to Church Rock itself to learn about how it got its name. The walk is 2.5km long of moderate difficulty. Please bring walking shoes, water and sun protection.
The Tidbinbilla Valley has played an important part of the Australian Capital Territory's (ACT) nature conservation efforts since 1936 and was gazetted as a nature reserve and national park in 1971.
Take a look at what's on offer at the Tidbinbilla Nature Reserve in this short video.
