Walking Trails at The Bower

'Eco accommodation with a touch of style'

The Bower at Broulee is surrounded by 300 acres of natural bushland with over 10 km of walking trails meandering through groves of Burrawang Palms, to the perimeter of the Illawong Nature Reserve on the western side of the Bower and then on to Candlagan Creek and provide an opportunity to see the Native Flora and Fauna first hand.

Accessible to the major tourist attractions of the Nature Coast; beautiful beaches, sub-tropical rainforests, Broulee Island, Mogo Zoo, the Murramarang and Montague Island National Parks wilderness areas which provide sanctuary for whales, native birds and other wildlife. Sea Kayaking at Durras is highly recommended as a way to explore the the natural and ancient cultural treasures of the NSW South Coast.

The Bower is ideal for bushwalking, birding [or as a base camp for anything from] sea-kayaking to horseback riding [from nearby properties, to the beach] or simply browsing the local craft shops & art galleries.

Broulee and Surrounds Bushwalks

Since The Bower is located on the South East Coast of Australia, on what is increasingly being recognised as the “Nature Coast” of NSW. The Southern NSW Coast remains relatively unspoilt by urban development and the recent formation of new and extended boundaries to the Eurobodalla, Deua and Murramarang National Parks means that the South Coast is likely to retain it's attractive expanses of wilderness areas.

Broulee Island, which is dedicated as a nature reserve, to preserve it's fauna, flora and the remnants of the original Broulee settlement, is a popular walk within just 2 kilometres walk from the front gate of The Bower.
