Sheldon Forest

The Sheldon Forest growing on the shale ridge is characterised by the towering Blue Gums which can reach 30m. On the lower slopes the vegetation changes, to that of a Sydney Turpentine Ironbark forest. Sandstone was also quarried on the northern edge of the Sheldon Forest until the 1930's. This is a playground for locals walking their dogs.

Troon Creek

Troon Creek is a natural bushland reserve owned and managed by Ku-ring-gai Council. The reserve is south of Sheldon Forest.
