Eusdale Nature Reserve was acquired as a direct result of broad community support for conservation of the area. Eusdale Nature Reserve and adjoining land form an important part of the catchment area for the Macquarie River. The majority of the vegetation is dry open woodland, however they also contain sub-alpine (montane) woodland vegetation, which is poorly represented in the Central Tablelands. A total of 168 native plant species have been recorded. Four threatened animal species have been recorded in the reserves: the powerful owl, gang gang cockatoo, Booroolong frog and purple (Bathurst) copper butterfly.
Eusdale Nature Reserve Plan of Management
Eusdale Nature Reserve is located 30 kilometres south-east of Bathurst in the Central Tablelands of NSW and covers 1,238 hectares. There is an adjoining area of 642 hectares that is vested in the Minister for the Environment pending its reservation. This plan of management covers both Eusdale Nature Reserve and the adjoining land which is yet to be reserved.
