On the Poltalloch Rd at the locality which is 9km west of the Princes Hwy, a series of small ponds attracts the birds, but they are fenced off so have to be spotted from the road, the surrounding farmland is predictably unproductive with little other than stock fodder in the fields.
No camping is advised here
