Reed Beds Bird Hide boardwalk

This place is a little off the Cobb Hwy so many people don't realise its there! Worth a visit though or a nice place to stretch the legs when travelling through.Boardwalk has cute info boards about the different bird species that live in the sanctuary, also make the bird sounds when spun. Boardwalk leads to viewing areas that look over the wetlands.

Nice spot to go and fill in a bit of time. Kids would like it

I've visited this location twice now 2 years apart. There are good facilities with a toilet and gas barbecue provided. The hide itself is well designed and there's an interactive display of birds with bird sounds on the boardwalk leading up to the hide. The sounds are activated by turning the information board for the bird which is designed to swivel.

The Reed Beds Bird Hide has a good turning circle and car parking area, clean toilets, a boardwalk with plaques showing different birds and explanations about those birds. There's also speakers on every plaque and when you spin the dozen or so plaques, you hear that particular bird's song through the speakers at the bottom - see photos. The Bird Hide was very good and would have cost loads to build but I thought the plaques with the songs of the birds being played for you to hear was very good too. We totally enjoyed our time here. It's only 5 kms out of Mathoura, NSW.

Definitely one of the best birds hides I have ever been toIt’s 2 story and there’s a nice boardwalk that leads to it

Found this by accident when stopping at the loo, it was really cool to have a look at. Wasn't any close birds on the day though

Double story bird-watching hide. We went on a cold and windy day but still enjoyed it. There is good parking, and a picnic area close by. Basic facilities only. The loos are well-maintained.

Love this spot. A great two storey wooden structure with hidden sides to view the wetlands without spooking the birds. Plenty of spots to set up a camera and tripod easily - and there are bench seats and a roof for shelter.Two touches I loved are the little signs on the walkway in giving a brief, fun introduction to the birds you (may) see - and their call is played when you spin the sign!The other is the bird Facebook" - a really clever set of Facebook posts written from each birds perspective. Amusing and informative.Sealed carpark and clean toilets are a nice touch. Wooden ramp all the way to the hide so it is disability and pram friendly.Well worth it!"

A beautiful bird hide that casts its eerie swampy magic everytime I go. Always a different bird to spot.

Loved seeing all the different types birds and the landscaping of the wetlands is a beautiiful view from the lookout the visitors r going to love the cultural tours along the board walk with lots to read from XoPARKS NSW MOAMA 2731
