through eucalypt woodlands. Spot Agile Wallabies and other wildlife.
Starts at the caravan section of the Mardugal Camping Area. Features:
A 1km return walk follows the edge of Mardugal Billabong. Families
of kaldurrk (blue-winged kookaburras) noisily advertise their
presence first thing in the morning and late in the day. Keep
an eye out for rakul (partidge pidgeon) wandering around on the
woodland floor. Kornobolo (agile wallabies) and dalkken (dingos)
can often be seen as well. The botanically inclined will notice
several species of eucalypts, bloodwoods, sand palms and liniment
trees like turkey bush.
Mardugal Billabong Walk
A short, shady loop around picture-perfect Mardugal Billabong.
This relaxing walk takes you to a beautiful picnic spot overlooking
the water. The billabong is lined with andjimjim (water pandanus),
towering silver-leaved paperbarks and shady syzygiums. Take a
fishing rod and fish from the high bank at the end of the walk,
but if you get a snag say goodbye to your lure large saltwater
crocs live in this billabong so stay out of the water. They rarely
show themselves but they are there dont go down the bank to
the waters edge!
