Barren Grounds Picnic Area

Barren Grounds Picnic Area, nestled within the Barren Grounds Nature Reserve, offers a tranquil retreat amidst bloodwood and silvertop ash trees. Ideal for family outings or a peaceful stop along Jamberoo Pass, visitors can enjoy picnicking on provided tables while observing local wildlife, including wallabies and various bird species. The area serves as a gateway to several walking tracks, such as the Illawarra Lookout, Cooks Nose, and Griffiths tracks, catering to both short strolls and more extensive hikes. Accessible via unsealed roads suitable for 2WD vehicles, the picnic area features a gravel carpark and non-flush toilets. Please note, pets and smoking are not permitted within the reserve.
