Parks and Gardens

Arborists and nature lovers will be stunned by the variety of exotic trees in the Big Brook Arboretum.

Browse through the park to see the enormous collection of trees which were initially planted to determine their resilience to the soil conditions and climate, and stay for a picnic lunch in their shade.

Nearby Big Brook Dam is also worth a visit for swimming, canoeing and bushwalking. Surrounded by karri forest, it’s a great spot to soak in the crystal blue water or sunbathe on the sandy beach.

The campground can accommodate tents, campervans, camper trailers and caravans. Picnic tables, barbecues and toilets are provided.

Campfires are usually permitted, in the provided fire rings only, between 15 April and 30 November but fire restrictions may be imposed at any time and without notice. Firewood is not provided and must be purchased locally.
