Wonga Wetland NSW

About 6km west of the edge of Albury on the B58 Riverina Hwy, the wetlands are on the south side of the road. The wetlands are open 24/7, but the carpark is only open between 7.30 and 19.30 each day, there are no fees to enter. This is a large man made wetland with walking trails and bird hides. Several hours can easily be spent here. There are toilets at the visitor centre.

No camping is allowed here
