Blackwood Forest Reserve is a remnant of a failed Pine Tree plantation as evidenced by the clump of trees plonked in straight rows over the paddock corner. The reserve, once you wander further into the pines and the surrounding fields dissapear, the reserve brings on an eerie vibe and I half expect fairies to trot along with me.
I cannot confirm, but strongly suspect, that the nearby Seedling Art Space is responsible for some of the oddities strung up around the forest. Either way, I enjoy spotting the mysteries as I walk my dog.
Great for a walk as the reserve links up with the Sturt river walk in Coro as well as the Frank Smith Park. Also cool for a kids party (particularly a girl’s fairy party) if you’re keen on picnics or a late night Spotlight game. The trail is uneven through the pines so it isn’t suitable for the accident prone but it really is a gorgeous place.
