Billai Dha-gun Track
Moreton Bay
Boondall Wetlands Reserve
A great short walk through the Boondall Wetlands, including a bird hide with lovely views.
This heavily trafficked walk starts at the Boondall Wetlands Environment Centre.
The walk is an easy stroll along graded paths and wooden boardwalks.
A range of vegetation types are encountered, including casuarinas, red marshlands, mangroves, salt flats, paperbark tea trees and she-oaks (the track name means ‘place of she-oaks’ in the local Indigenous language).
A bird-hide rests on the banks at the junction of Nundah Creek and Cabbage Tree Creek and is a fantastic place to spot wildlife, particularly at low tide.
The circuit also includes a number of Indigenous totems related to the flora and fauna.
Track: The walk consists of graded tracks and wooden boardwalks and is well-signed and easy to follow.
Difficulty: The walk is an easy stroll suitable for all fitness levels, including those in wheelchairs (some assistance may be required at times). The walk is mostly flat.
Direction: While the walk can be completed in any direction, clockwise is recommended.
