Chereninup Creek Reserve is an outstanding area of 877 ha. It lies between the Fitzgerald River National Park and the Stirling Range National Park, 140 km north-east of Albany in Western Australia. Situated on the southern edge of the West Australian wheat belt, this region has seen dramatic rates of vegetation clearance in the last 40 years. The reserve contributes to the protection of at least four significant communities and four species at risk.
The property protects part of Australia's only global biodiversity 'hotspot' where plant genera such as Banksia, Grevillea, Dryandra,Verticordia, Acacia and Eucalyptus achieve maximum species richness. It protects vulnerable and endangered species and plant communities. It assists in linking two existing nature reserves, the Corackerup and Peniup reserves, and contributes to a the nationally significant Gondwana Link project.
Management work: Revegetation work on 80 ha of cleared land, pest animal control, access track maintenance, fauna and flora surveys.
