About

Located on Little Run Creek, Potoroo picnic area is an ideal, scenic spot for lunch. Sheltered tables, wood barbecues, and toilets are all provided to make things easy and relaxing, so you can sit back and soak in the views or wander along the creek looking for platypus.

The spectacular Potoroo Falls lies approximately 1km upstream from the picnic area, along Potoroo Falls walk, and is well worth the effort for a lovely stroll through the rainforest with a swim in the waterfall pool at the end.
