Information

This grassy rest area is very popular despite being right by the busy Kennedy Hwy. It is a large open area surrounded by tall forest trees with a small running creek which has areas where you can dip in to cool off. The toilet block is old but offers a flush toilet and tap water, bins serviced daily by council rangers and 48 hours limit enforced for tourists but appears some long-termers setup residence. Very handy to Ravenshoe, Mt Garnet etc.
