You then cross the creek and turn right along the northern bank and just before the RV Friendly Camping Area, you recross the creek back along the southern side loop back to the start.

A bird list is available from the Information Centre.
If you stay overnight, take a stroll out to the wine glass shaped Water Tower, opened in 1971, that stands at 30m, where a blue light illuminates the Tower at night creating a striking visual effect.
