Beyeria Conservation Park: A Sanctuary for Rare Flora

Beyeria Conservation Park is a protected haven nestled on Kangaroo Island, approximately 16 kilometres south of Kingscote, South Australia. Established in 1987 to safeguard unique plant species from further land clearing, the park is a testament to the importance of conservation.

Named after the rare Kangaroo Island Turpentine Bush (Beyeria subtecta), this 188-hectare reserve showcases the diversity of the region’s flora. Its sandy loam soils support a unique ecosystem, including other endangered plants like Grevillea muricata, Olearia microdisca, and Caladenia ovata.

Beyeria Conservation Park is a vital component of Kangaroo Island’s ecological fabric, offering a glimpse into the island’s rich botanical heritage.
