West barwon reservoir, Victoria, Australia

4.0 (14 reviews) Spent Ranking #5 in Forrest Bodies of Water • Biking Trails • Scenic Walking Areas

Great walking tracks with Koala's

Great place for a walk and fresh air. The loop around the reservoir didn't take long, 15 mins. There were other paths that led off into the forest, one took us to a second car park. Loop around reservoir plus walk to second car park and back was 40 mins. The path was nice and dry even after heavy rainfall and storms. Electric BBQ's, tables and toilets on site. No under cover shelter. Spotted two Koala's not too far from the carpark.

Good spot for lunch break
Only a short drive out from Forest. We did the 30 min walk across the dam wall and then down past the spillway. No fishing allowed, but there are several tables for a lunch break and gas powered bbqs. Spotted a Koala in a tree next to the toilet block. There is also a huge grass area at the base of the dam wall for ball games.

Nice picnic spot with good facilities
Located a short drive from Forest. Plenty of car parking and picnic facilities including tables, gas bbq and toilets. All well maintained. We walked across the dam wall and returned via a loop track. Took about 30min. Then enjoyed a picnic lunch at one of the tables near the car park. Nice picnic spot with good facilities.
