Statement of Significance

The Bendigo Whipstick is of considerable geographical and paleoclimatic interest within the State of Victoria. From a landscape view, the rather long flat appearance of the Whipstick, together with the remnants of the old mining days, and the eucalyptus oil industry, provide an interesting landscape which comes alive in Spring with the appearance of a multitude of wildflowers.
