Distillery Creek Gorge
The reserve is a natural dolerite gorge, 70m deep.
Tracks wind along the top of steep rocky slopes and cliffs though dry woodlands.
Distillery Creek supplies freshwater for Launceston, via a diversion tunnel from the St Patricks River built in 1857, commemorated by the fountain in Prince's Square.
Swift parrots visit the large gum trees on their annual migration to nest sites in the south-east.
