We went in the afternoon and it’s a lovely grassy area. Some shade in the arvo but I’d say it would be full sun all morning. Gently sloping and a quiet bush setting, the path from here heads down to Fairy Dell and the whole Sassafras Gully walk, which we didn’t attempt. The meander to Fairy Dell is nice to explore although the creek is dry at the moment. Bring a rug for your Gladys-approved picnic as the grass is patchy and there’s only one picnic table here. No toilets or taps.

Great ambience and relaxing venue. Had a lovely picnic lunch consisting of food including, but not limited to, breads, meats, vegetables, fruits, purified fats and sugar, frozen water products, and sweats. Relaxed in the setting sun until the Jim Bleam (sic) and coke worked it's way out of my system then drove the Subaru west until I reached Bathurst. Once I finally found a parking spot I proceeded to set up the Barbie and had hot snags on white bread rolls with fountain tomato (with onions) sauce for dinner. 👍

Sassafras Gully is a wooden greenery Gorge on edge of Springwood, great for those that bring own lunch provisions to a picnic spot

Had a spledid evening at this picnic spot, would love to give 5 stars but there was a possum in the public bin? very perplexing experience.

There's only one picnic shelter, it's a tad hard to access car or walking. Fairy dell is nice if not rain affected to walk into. Wouldn't recommend to a traveller.
