Nomads Picnic Area

A very pleasant picnic area has been established at the site settled in the early 1970's by Lou Meyrick, an avid amateur naturalist. This area was known locally as 'The Nomads Retreat'. The shelter shed contains original stonework and chimney and outside, the paling fence remains. Fire places, tables, and toilet are provided.

However, the peaceful picnic area, does not give the remotest hint of the spectacular views available to the visitor prepared to make the climbe to the top of the lookout. The climb is not the easiest and, in parts, requires installed ladders to make it all the way, but the 360o panoramic view from the top, that allows you to see 100's of kilometres in basically every direction, is well worth the effort
