YIPPIN CREEK RESERVE

Public BBQ

Yippin Creek Reserve offers a charming escape just outside Wauchope, where families gather around barbecue facilities beneath generous tree cover. The park transforms every couple of weekends when the mini railway springs to life, delighting children with authentic train rides that keep them occupied for hours. During quieter periods, the reserve maintains its peaceful atmosphere as an ideal spot for picnics and barbecues, with ample shaded seating and clean toilet facilities available. The natural setting encourages imaginative play among the trees, though parents should note there's no traditional playground equipment. Parking proves abundant, with particularly good shade available before 11am and after 4pm across the road. The volunteer-run railway operation adds genuine charm to this wallet-friendly destination, creating weekend perfection for families seeking a blend of novelty and natural tranquility on the Mid North Coast.
