We ask all visitors treat the picnic sites responsibly. Please take-home litter and do not have any fires or BBQ’s. Please keep dogs under close control and clean up after them. The river hosts very special wildlife, we ask you avoid moving rocks and building dams, this helps to preserve their natural habitat. Thank you for your co-operation.
