It's 5km from the visitors centre, and then it's about another 1 to 1.5km to the water. I thought it would be a good idea to walk the whole distance, so I was pretty tired by the time I got back to town. There is parking at the entrance though & the road is pretty empty.
It's pleasant enough, very quiet and you'll likely see no one else around for the whole time you're there. It's not signposted, but if you walk straight ahead you'll reach a small creek and a nice table to rest on. I did see a toilet off in the distance on a side track, but don't count on it.

The pine forest is a great place to get away from the noise and have some peace and quiet. There are extensive tracks used for either bike riding or walking, and you could spend hours there.

The Armidale Pine forest is a great place to go for a picnic. There are 170 acres of radiata pine within this forest and is criss-crossed with walking and push bike tracks. Furthermore is dog friendly.

We went there to go for a walk and found it pretty average, had trouble finding the place to start off with as there is also another picnic area which looks a bit run down close by. Would be great for mountain bike riders as it has all the tracks marked out. Would also be a good place to walk your dog. No picnic tables from what we could see or toilets.

This is a good place to go bush walking. It's all pretty flat and good for beginner bush walkers. You can also swim there....

Only a 7 minute drive from the centre of town. This is a great place to spend an afternoon on the weekends.
Walk or ride, it's a treat!

My wife and I love this place. It brings us peace and is a romantic place for a picnic. We do a walk out here at least twice a week together. Our special place where we can relax..we feel lucky to have it at our door-step.

Drive five minutes from Armidale. Walk for ages. Find the grove. Find the creek. Kiss your partner. Take a picnic.
