TARAGO RESERVOIR PARK

Public BBQ

Tarago Reservoir Park presents a barbecue destination that tantalises visitors with waterfront promises, then hides the reservoir behind locked gates. The rutted dirt road approach sets adventure expectations, though bone-rattling potholes suggest neglected maintenance. This compact, secluded spot offers gas barbecues among overgrown gardens, grassed areas for children, clean toilet facilities and picnic shelters. Visitors seeking reservoir views will be disappointed,the water remains out of sight and reach. The park's charm lies in its bush setting and peaceful isolation, where fallen trees block walking paths and warning signs mention tiger snakes. Despite its rough edges, it delivers a serviceable barbecue experience for those embracing its quirky character.
