Great Brak River Village Walk

A very easy 5km circular walk around the Great Brak River estuary. Start close to the library on Long St and head over the bridge in town. The path takes about an hour and returns across another bridge just downstream. Watch out for cormorants and other bird life around the river and estuary.
Prices: Free, no permits needed. Maps available from Great Brak River Museum.
