What people say
A nice enough spot with some walking and mountain bike trails. Unfortunately, there was a lot of dumped rubbish from couches to numerous car tyres, which was really disappointing. There Was a used syringe in the bush at the picnic area. Could be a really nice spot if it wasn't for the grubs that think it is their own personal dump and injecting room
An excellent area to explore and enjoy nature. We travelled most of the trails without a 4x4 but sone trails need them. The dirt roads are well maintained. We walked a few trails and it was very relaxing.
We walked from Astills Picnic Ground. Cracking weather and hardly anyone around. Followed the Deadmans Trail and then out as far as the zoo. Few dirt bikes to watch out for but everyone was friendly.
We stopped by the picnic area. Road leading was all gravel and therefore had to be a slow drive not to make the car behind soak in dust. But kids played and we had lunch before the next part of the journey that day. Area close by to the tables were mowed and pleasant.
We walked the dead man loop and the place was strewn with rubbish that people had dumped everywhere . The walk itself was on roads all the way so not very interesting, no views, no wildlife, not even any birdlife. Would certainly would not recommend as a walk.
