Brock Valley Picnic Site

Picnic ground

👍👍 Fantastic day out!! Parking isn't great worth going early. I'd take chairs due to the ground being peddled and very uncomfortable. House flies, ect, but expected anyway. Good for a day out with the kids or with the doggo. Kids loved exploring the water, peddle skipping, and also met some new friends...

👍👍 This place is Beautiful 🤩. For everyone who likes a paddle, walk, a best river with a Ford. I think only modified jeeps etc can pass over here, it's deepest at winter. I've only ever only witnessed a vehicle cross here, aha it was a jeep with snorkel exhaust 👌

👍👍 Fantastic place to take the dog they can even go in the river for a cool down (kids like to as well). Would highly recommend. Picnic tables as well in the meadow. Lot's of dog bins as well.

👍👍 This place is finally wheelchair friendly thanks to the efforts of everybody who funded the lift into the museum! The lift fits one person and a powered wheelchair/wheelchair. The disabled toilet is outside and located by the other toilets. It's a surprisingly spacious toilet so I was quite impresse...
