Information
Goomalling’s Oak Park Reserve comprises 149 hectares of remnant native vegetation. Oak Park is named for the Swamp She-oaks (Casuarina obesa) in the area. To its south-west lies the Lake Walyormouring Nature Reserve. The Ballardong people, traditional owners of the area, refer to it as Wolyamurry, from wolya, the word for kangaroo rat. See website link provided for more information on the Visit Goomalling Shire website.
Here you will find a designated free bush camp area in a historic area with gnamma holes, information signboards and a walking track. Camping is suitable for caravans or tents, however there is not a lot of grass cover. It is quite large, level and with some scattered shade here and there. Picnic table and shelter, pit toilet but no bins. Fires ok but byo firewood.
To get to Oak Park from the Goomalling townsite, take the road towards Dowerin and then either:
turn left into Oak Park Rd, or turn left onto the Wongan Hills Rd, drive for about 17kms then take the road right into Botherling East Rd. This second route takes a little longer but there is less gravel road to travel.
