Description

This one-way interpretative trail is 3.6 kilometres in length and is designed to be a learning experience. Information displays help you discover why these wetlands are important, why they are under threat and how you can help protect them for future generations. The trail winds through fringing sedgelands, heathlands, under banksia canopies and over dune ridges with views of the wetland system and surrounding catchment.

Birds along this trail include Red-necked Avocet and Black-fronted Dotterel and, in summer, migratory shorebirds.
