Beechworth Historic Park is 270km northeast of Melbourne in the foothills of the alps. People visit Beechworth for the natural beauty of the forests and ranges as well as the historical architecture of the town. It claims to be the best preserved gold town in Victoria with more than 30 of its buildings classified by the National Trust.
Outside the town, a number of significant goldmining sites are incorporated in sections of the 1130ha Beechworth Historic Park. The tranquil beauty of eucalyptus and native cypress pine forests, winding creeks, steep gullies and rugged granite outcrops can be enjoyed for their own sake or viewed as the setting for the labors of the diggers.
The park supports a diverse range of marsupials, reptiles and birds. Rare species include brush-tailed phascogales, bandy bandy snakes and barking owls. Eucalyptus and native cypress-pine forests are prevalent in the park.
