BIRDS of Mawson Lakes

This ecological parkland demonstrates how stormwater from the Dry Creek catchment enters the wetland and is cleansed as it slowly passes through different sections. Wetland plants together with natural processes filter out the nutrients, sediments and pollutants, ensuring dirty storm water does not enter the sea and adversely affect the marine environment. The entrance gate to the wetlands trail is open between 9am and 4pm. If locked you can get an access key from the Watershed Cafe located off the car park. Resting areas with benches are located at the half way mark. Good footwear is recommended as snakes inhabit the bushland. If you see a snake, remain still and allow the snake to continue on its way. Plenty of parking is available. Water and a toilet are at the entrance. This nature park provides excellent opportunities to photograph wildlife.
