Bryces Flat Picnic Area consists of a creek-side clearing with a picnic table and wood fire barbecue. A series of stepping stones cross the scenic creek and there are a couple of great bushwalking options from here. This is a great place for children to have a play in the water as it's very shallow with large smooth stones on the creek bed.
Gold prospecting is allowed here, and you will find some sections of exposed bedrock along the creek where you could try your luck crevicing for gold.
Sailors Creek usually flows until early-mid summer before drying up. A great way to check the water levels of the creek is to search for recent public posts of
Sailors Falls or
The Blowhole on Instagram. These are located along Sailors Creek (Sailors Falls is upstream and The Blowhole is downstream from here), and if they have plenty of water then there should be water here too.
