Birdsland Reserve

Really beautiful areas with lakes and so much wildlife, personally I like to go there just after dark to do hand brake turns in the gravel parking lot in the subie, just my opinion

Gorgeous place for a barbecue or walk. Dog-friendly: water tap near entrance to park with spot for dogs to get water to drink; I noticed most people kept their dogs on leads along the path, but there's a paved set of stairs which is a spot for dogs to jump safely into and out of the lake around the furthest part of it, splash around and have fun. Birds have their own island so it's easy for them to fly off and rest if the dogs come too close.The creek and lakes all look really healthy and the forest is lush and much less dry than it was when I was growing up - I expect the improvements to the paths help ensure it's a wonderfully idyllic and interesting walk so that people don't go crashing through and stomping on the local flaura trying to get a better experience. Lots of happy ducks and other wildlife to appreciate.

Love this hiking place! Nice spot, nice view, easy walk, great atmosphere! Good place for a picnic and hike!

Love taking our fur baby here to meet up and walk with her fur friends.Our Doberman group often meet here for a walk. (20+ Dobermans)Lake area for doggie drinks/ swim/ splash.Lovely level walk for all abilities.Picnic area available with plenty of seating & BBQ's as well as drinking water.Long drop toilets available

Very pretty around the water with lots of bird life, then head off towards Dargon track and on into Lysterfield Park.Good tracks and very peaceful in the bush.

We regularly attend here. It’s a great place to go for a walk with the children but an even better place to do a spot of birding. I spot between 15-30 species every visit and you’re guaranteed to always see an Australasian darter and hear whistler birds and warblers. Kangaroos and wallabies are also about, with the odd snake or two if you’re early. The toilets could do with a bit of a revamp.

Very well maintained walking track with the winding creek which opens out to two larger lake areas. Flat areas for all fitness levels.Popular for on leash dog walking. Toilet facilities in car park.Great area for the whole family. A well hidden gem!

A glorious place to walk. Beautiful scenery and green pastures. Quite a peaceful walk up the hill or around the lake. There is a toilet near the car park which is very convenient. And if you have time, watch the sunset from the top of the hill. Enjoy.

Beautiful natural publis reserve tucked away, and slightly off the beaten track. We enjoyed the full loop walk - approx 2.3 km - that passes two lakes, a flat gravel path, and provides the opportunity for bird watching. Carport area has toilets, seating, tables, limited shelter and information boards. Birdsland is named after settlers - the Birds family - however, there are also plenty of actual birds!

Great place for an easy walk. Lots af bird life, plenty of kangaroos to see. Backs on to lysterfield, so if you're keen, you can walk all the way to the lake.
