Kingborough has a number of beautiful reserves within its Natural Areas Network. These Natural Areas are tracts of native bushland, established for the purposes of conservation, protection and education. Most of the reserves contain significant ecological processes and are habitats for threated flora and fauna.
A number of initiatives have contributed to the preservation of these reserves while creating unique nature based recreational opportunities for residents and visitors.
