Forde, a master-planned community, offers 11 main parks and 39 hectares of wetlands and nature reserves, all designed to encourage eco-friendly activity. Every home is conveniently located within 200 meters of a landscaped park, wetland, or nature reserve, with 29% of the suburb dedicated to green space.
Mulligans Flat Nature Reserve is rich in natural habitat, Indigenous history, and vibrant European heritage. It is one of the ACT's premier bird-watching spots, home to the rare regent honeyeater and Forde's own superb fairy wren.
