native vegetation in the Gippsland area. Europeans first
settled the area during the 1840's however the area shows
occupation by aboriginals specifically the Woollum Woollum
tribe who hunted game in the region, artefacts have been
found in the park. ONe of the most striking features of the
park is the abundance of native orchids over 40 species have
