Washpools picnic area and viewing platform

Middle Brook, NSW, 2337

Experience Details

Washpools picnic area and viewing platform are set within river oak forest and box woodland beside the tranquil Middle Brook. Come and enjoy a relaxing barbecue lunch and take in the scenic views across the Upper Hunter. Bring your binoculars and keep an eye out for the park's various birds. When you see a red flash flying through the bushland, is it a king parrot or a crimson rosella? After lunch, go for an easy walk along the banks of Middle Brook to Washpools waterhole. The kookaburras may start laughing when you strip down for a swim but don't shy away. This natural waterhole is a lovely way to cool down. If you stay overnight at Washpools campground, visit the picnic area very early in the day, or leave late, you may see grazing wallabies, kangaroos, or even a wombat.
