What people say
Such a gorgeous little walk. Dogs are allowed on leash and you can walk down all the way the creek till the oval . Was surprised of how secluded is inside and we’ll take care of. Be adventurous and take the walk under River rd . Very cool
Beautiful bush walk that’s kid friendly. A little down hill but steps are available. Go on a dry day. No restrooms or benches.
What a wonderful place. Will visit again when I have more time and when there's less mosquitos... Very beautiful part of Lane Cove. Everyone is very friendly and happy to say a hello.
Great bush walk Not enough water flowing for the waterfall but still a great walk
This nature walk is wonderfully blessed by foliage, and chirping birds and squaking parrots. Every few steps you can smell jasmine and hear the rustling leaves and see the flying birds. This bushland park is a delight for those who love flora. Don't forget binoculars if you want to watch some birds though. The foliage is pretty thick so it's easy to miss quick moving bodies. Also, most of the birds are perched high up. So down below one doesn't get to see them much.
