The Wannon Reserve is 14 klm from
Hamilton heading towards
Coleraine.
The entrance is very noticable by the large boomerangs, one each side of
the entrance. The signs state 'overnight' stay. This is believe is to stop people living there. We stayed 5 nights no problem. There were quite a few people staying 1 or 2 nights. Near the
shelter, a pole used as a
gate had been opened, which gives you access to
camp near the shelters The turn off to go to the other falls near by is right near the Wannon entry. This is called the Nigretta. It's about 6 klms drive. No camping allowed there. Lovely picnic and BBQ areas though. Even a rope for swing out over the water. Note: when going to the Nigretta, you will come to a T
intersection. There are no signs. Turn left and you are right there. There is also a walk down to a lower viewing platform.
Well worth a look. When in flood they both are spectacular.
Note: take a drive from the
camping area down to the falls before you decide to take your
young children for a walk. It is a reasonable walk down
hill.
Just across the road from
camping area is what used to be an oval. Very suitable for playing cricket or flying a kite.
There are
places suitable for swimming at the top of the falls. Watch out for those little black blood suckers....
MOBILE PHONE COMERAGE IS VERY ERATIC. TEXTING IS BETTER.
