Walk 7 - Burgan Walk
45 mins return (moderate)
Start at the Visitors Centre. Follow the track shown in BLACK to take you to entry and exit points at Ashburton Drive, Wattle Valley or Nara Roads, following sections of Yarran Dheran and Schwerkolt Tracks and passing by the ponds as described in other walks.
On Cherry Ballart track leading to the ponds from Ashburton Drive, you will see swathes of Chocolate Lilies Arthropodium strictum and Milkmaids Burchardia umbellata in the Spring.
The vegetation on the Burgan Walk is reflective of dry sclerophyll bushland as it is distant from the creek and you are likely to see Grey Butcherbirds, Eastern Rosellas, Common Bronzewings and other seed eating birds, while in the canopy trees, you may see Tawny Frogmouths.
In this area, you may also see some of the artificial tree hollows and sugar glider boxes that have been installed throughout Yarran Dheran by Whitehorse City Council as a means of increasing hollows for nesting birds and wildlife.
