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.

When this happens, it's usually because the owner only shared it with a small group of people, changed who can see it or it's been deleted.

Further details will follow, including info on any guest speaker we can arrange (suggestions welcome).
We collected a lot of rubbish today along Stoney Creek Rd. Not all of it is shown here. Some of the tyres (11 in total) were too big to move to a central collection point.
Fabulous job. Thank you
Our last activity was Sallow wattle removal. We covered a lot of ground. 7 of us went to over 20 locations around Savannah track, Swamp track and Boundary Track. Numerous plants were cut down at most locations . We also took out a couple of small pine trees and some gorse plants. We'll keep an eye out for any regrowth
Our next activity will be on Sunday 14th July. We'll be removing rubbish along Beremboke Rd and Reids Rd
Meet at the Harry Peeters Reserve car park by the Upper Stony Creek reservoir at 10:30AM. Please try to carpool if you know anyone else coming.
Please bring protective gloves, Hi-vis clothing and long rubbish tongs if you have them. Forecast is for a medium chance of a shower or two and a top around 11, so dress suitably. Bring lunch, drinks and snacks. We'll have rubbish bags available.
Did a great job. Saw some of it this am as I had a check out the back. From the neighbour…thanks.
