This picnic area is a quiet clearing along the river, and the turnaround point for the Blue Tiles Walking Trail. Nestled under eucalypts and surrounded by steep, bush-covered slopes, this spot feels surprisingly secluded, even though it’s close to the city. The river bends gently through the gorge here, creating calm pools and rocky edges that make it a peaceful place to rest before returning along the trail.
