Access is best off Doherty’s Rd north of Werribee, there is also access from Ballan Rd, but high clearance is necessary to cross the ford of the Werribee River. This site is mostly parkland, but along the creekline there is some habitat.
Camping is not allowed in the reserve, and I wouldn’t recommend camping on the road, especially on weekends as the area attracts unsavory people.
