Whites Hill Bushcare and Environment Group

We are dedicated to looking after the natural environment, especially the Whites Hill, Pine Mountain, and Sankeys Mountain areas in the southern suburbs of Brisbane City.

Our surrounding suburbs are Camp Hill, Carina Heights, Coorparoo and Holland Park

Whites Hill Reserve is a precious nature reserve super close to the city containing rare and endangered flora and fauna. Our Habitat Brisbane Bushcare volunteers get hands on weeding and planting in the Reserve and our walking group hold Sunday guided walks regularly spotting koalas and other native wildlife.

Our Pine Mountain Quarry Petition Is Up!
