Ngambaa Nature Reserve

Ngambaa Nature Reserve, including Red Cedar Park is a protected area of 10,560 hectares, situated in the Mid North Coast region of New South Wales. The nearest large town is Macksville. The reserve endeavours to protect many rare and threatened flora and fauna species, such as rainforest and four species of ironbark trees. An interesting local species is the small bolwarra, one of the most primitive of flowering plants. The landscapes are of significance to the local Aboriginal communities, and contain relics of historical use by non-Aboriginal people.[2][3][4]
