Kara Kara National Park protects one of the most intact remnants of Victoria's
box-ironbark forests. Parts of the national park are relatively unmodified in comparison to other areas of forest in the central goldfields and are a fine example of the type of vegetation that once covered almost 13% of Victoria. The national park is of importance to the
Dja Dja Wurrung people. The national park lies within the
St Arnaud Box-Ironbark Region Important Bird Area, identified as such by
BirdLife International because of its importance for
swift parrots and other
woodland birds. The national park has numerous tracks of varying grades and quality for mountain biking and hiking with easy access off Sunraysia Highway between
Redbank and St Arnaud. ==See also==
