Reviews
"Nice little park, water tap and container provided for dogs. Multiple tables and a little walking track along the creek."
"Great little spot for a picnic, and far enough away from the busy roads. Kids have plenty of space to kick the footy and run around. BBQ and drink tap facilities"
"I feel like "native botanic garden" is like calling KFC a dine-in restaurant. I mean, grass, some trees.. Secluded for a quick.. well.. whatever your thing is.. but yeh. Not on my "attractions" list.. and shouldn't be on yours."
"Native Botanical Gardens is obviously local council speak for run-of-the-mill bushland typical for Bendigo area but also includes sheltered BBQ area (east end of Camp Street) with seating for over 20 people & public toilets (Station Street entrance) 200 metres from picnic/BBQ area. About half an acre of well kept grassland in the same part of these "Gardens". A dog park is located on the east side of the railway line on the corner of Allingham & Chapel Street. It is accessible from the main part of the "Gardens" by following a pedestrian pathway south then beside a creek under a railway bridge. This east side of the rail line also has a children's playground. This is on Allingham street near the Muir Street corner. Depending on what sign you read this area of bush is variously call "Kangaroo Flat Native & Botanical Gardens" or "Kangaroo Flat Native Botanical Gardens" or simply "Kangaroo Flat Native Botanic Gardens". I guess one of the above is probably correct. Anyway at this time of year (early December) there are hundreds of Monarch butterflies in the tree areas. Strangely the Harcourt Oak Forest (often referred to as the "Magic Oak Forest") 30 minutes drive away at the foot of Mount Alexander has thousands of Monarch butterflies, not hundreds, at a different time of year (mid May to mid June) & is incredible walking through a mass of butterflies with every step."
"It's a nice spot to sit around the back at the barbecue area ok for a walk if you're an able body person but if you're on a walking frame it's a bit harder"
