-
South Coast
This walk at Murray Lagoon offers the visitor a tea-tree swamp experience. Waterfowl such as ducks, swans and waders flock to the lagoon to create a bird-lovers delight. Hawks and eagles prey upon the waterfowl, while chats and little grassbirds sing among the thickly vegetated shorelines. During drought years and late in the summer the best views of Murray Lagoon can be seen from the Bald Hill (6) and Curly Creek (7) trails.
The walk begins 500 metres west of Murray Lagoon park headquarters off Seagers Road, which can be seasonally flooded.
Note: walking trail subject to flooding in winter months.
