Mount Imlay National Park is 19km south of Eden in a heavily forested area. It covers an area of 3764 and is dominated by Mount Imlay (886 metres). At the base of Mount Imlay starts a 3km track to the summit which is rough and steep, taking 3 hours return, but it is well worth the effort, affording views south to Mallacoota and Victoria, north and east over The Panorama of The Sapphire Coast and west to the Monaro Pastoral Country. It also supports a population of extremely rare Eucalyptus imlayensis. Aboriginal people know the mountain as Balawan, a powerful spiritual place of great significance.
As plant communities are fragile and soil erosion a problem in the vicinity of Mt. Imlay, fires and camping are not permitted.
A well maintained picnic area is located at the end of Burrawang Road where there is adequate car parking. The walking track starts from this point. Mount Imlay was named for the Imaly Brothers, pioneers of the area.
