LITTLE RIVER PICNIC AREA

Public BBQ

A small, remote picnic area tucked into the Brisbane Ranges, reached on dirt road - straightforward enough, but worth taking slowly if you are not used to them. The setting is the draw: a gorge-like stretch with steep sides, lush green hills and a creek that runs most of the year, though it dries up over summer. There is a fire place for cooking over wood, one long drop toilet and tank water. Space is very tight, two or three groups at most, and there is only one bench, so bring camping chairs. One walk-in camping spot can be booked through Parks Victoria for a small group; no vehicle-based camping is allowed, and it makes a fine campsite if you arrive on foot along the Burchell Trail. The larger picnic area off Switch Road has more toilets if you need them.
