Lophostemon confertus-Brush Box, Boorganna Nature Reserve - Comboyne Plateau, NSW Australia

Boorganna Nature Reserve is one of the oldest Nature Reserves in NSW having been gazetted in 1904.
The reserve is situated on the NSW Mid North Coast on the south western edge of the Comboyne Plateau/escarpment and approximately 6km west of Comboyne village or 35km southwest of Wauchope and 50 km north-west of Taree.
Boorganna Nature Reserve covers an area of just 396 hectares and is a tiny, but botanically important, remnant of the extensive rainforest that once covered the plateau. Today Boorganna Nature Reserve sits in stark contrast to the thorough job done by the early settlers to clear almost every tree off the plateau.
The reserve preserves 6 different rainforest/forest types which one passes through on the walk to Rawson Falls.
