Corhanwarrabul Wetlands Circuit

Starting from the southwestern car park in the Inbound EastLink Service Centre, Scoresby, this walk pivots around the Corhanwarrabul Wetlands and has multiple crossings (bridged). This place is a bird watcher's paradise, offering a rich birdlife all year long, with heaps of vantage points to spot species such as pelicans and ibises. The wetlands provide a fantastic habitat for amphibians as well. You can also enjoy this relatively painless stroll with the family. However, keep in mind that there are no water fountains or seating areas along the track. During winter and after rain, the path can become very muddy. Additionally, some parts can be overgrown, which might force you to backtrack. Let us begin by acknowledging the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we travel today, and pay our respects to their Elders past and present.
