Paddys Ranges State Park, near Maryborough, 170km northwest of Melbourne, Australia comprises 2,010 ha (4,970-acre) of native vegetation. Gold mining and eucalyptus oil production within the park date back to the 1840s but are long close down. The vegetation is primarily of Box-Ironbark type, with prominent Golden Wattle and native orchids. Swift Parrots, Painted Honeyeaters, Wedge-tailed Eagles and Crested Bellbirds are all present.
Camping and fires are permitted in designated areas.
