Parking

Parking is available a very short walk from the attraction. The carpark is small and the road into the carpark is narrow and winding, so it’s not suitable for trailers, caravans, campervans or long vehicles. Such vehicles would need to park on Currarong Road and walk in to the site (approximately 250m). It can be a busy place on the weekend, so parking might be limited.
