Welcome… Meet the Friends of Brisbane Ranges and learn about what we do.
Friends of Brisbane Ranges aims to learn about the environment, ecology, flora, fauna, and history of the Brisbane Ranges National Park and Steiglitz Historic Park.
Group members meet regularly to learn more about the diverse ecology of the Park through citizen science activities and hands-on conservation work. And for members, this is an enjoyable and involving way to appreciate the natural beauty of the park while protecting the Park’s environmental values.
In 2022, the Friends of Brisbane Ranges will celebrate its 40 year anniversary. We look forward to providing news and events on this new website to recognise this important milestone.
You will see the material for this website changing as it is being uploaded and posted, so if you can't find specific Friends of Brisbane Ranges subjects or stories, please let us know.
We hope you enjoy this newly launched website and learn a bit more about the unique assemblage of animals, fungi and plants calling the Brisbane Ranges home. To get involved, keep up with social media, join in an activity and become a member too.
We hope to see you soon.
We acknowledge that we are working on the land of the Wathaurong/Wada Wurrung people, and pay our respects to their elders past, present and future. We also pay our respects to all Aboriginal people currently living on this Country.

It’s National Wildlife Day and what better time to put a spotlight on our Focus Species!
These native animals are the heroes of our Focus Species program, helping all Victorians learn about our environmental rules and how following them helps protect native wildlife at home and in the wild.
They face threats from illegal take of timber, people not obeying separation distances and animal cruelty if poorly treated.
The Focus Species program includes interactive learning materials, like stickers, factsheets and activity pages.
