Gone with the wetlands – explore our favourites With world class wetlands on our doorstep – home to over 160 different species of birds, frogs, fish or fauna – there’s a maze of natural wonders just waiting to be discovered. The largest of these is the Greenfield Wetlands – the City of Salisbury’s premier wetlands, covering more than 114 hectares, making it one of the first large, constructed urban wetlands in Australia. It’s a perfect green escape from the surrounding busy city infrastructure and the sea of traffic on the Salisbury Highway. As the sunny weather looks to stay it’s tempting to get out for a walk, so why not skip the bitumen footpaths and streetways for a stroll along the wetlands and boardwalks instead?
Greenfields Wetlands
We’ve highlighted a few of our favourite picks for you to explore and enjoy next time.
Greenfields Wetlands The wetlands cover two key sections that are divided by the Salisbury Highway. Enter the northern side from the turn-off to The Watershed Café on Salisbury Highway at Mawson Lakes. Alternatively, enter the Southern side from Magazine Road on Salisbury Highway at Dry Creek. The wetlands are always open; however, the gated sections are only open between 8am and 4pm. There’s plenty for everyone to find on the 1.3km walking trail through the wetland bushes.
