Birding Trails

REGUA has an extensive network of superb rainforest trails, both marked and unmarked, running throughout the reserve. All are excellent birding trails with huge bird lists and many other animals and interesting plants and invertebrates can also be encountered. Some of our trails now have leaflets giving details of the trail as well as telling you what can be seen.
