What people say
Came at 5pm and the lake was closed and they fenced it off and capped the lake with a big tarp so no-one can acess the lake. (Seriously why is there a opening and closing time. lol)
Great spot for bird watching, play, and exercise. The trail is good for walking or running, with little to no elevation, and lots of stopping points along the way. Easy 2.4km circuit. Pathway can be subject to minor flooding.
A rather lovely lake surrounded by grassy parkland with walkway, seating and picnic areas.
