The larger of the trails, a 2.6km loop walk around the outside of the island, takes you past wetlands and swamps full of birdlife and stunning river views, partnered with seated rest areas to enjoy.

In the centre of the island is a large grassed area perfect for those family picnics, sports, kite flying or playing with your canine friends. This area is also surrounded by various paved paths with easy access from the carpark for wheelchairs and/or prams.

Want to cool off? Why not paddle the many inlets and coves and explore the island with a whole new perspective.

Please note there are no toilet or BBQ facilties on the island and being a wildlife sanctuary, fishing is not permitted and dogs must be on a leash.

The area started off o.k but in an electric wheelchair got abit stuck so had to turn around. Wouldn’t advise to go off roading but once we got to the other side much safer and more accessible.
As the gravel was o.k but once I got to soft sand it was retreat.
I put my adventure on my YouTube channel.

Did this years ago and found it a little underwhelming to be honest but may have changed over the years.
