Serendip Sanctuary has woodlands and wetlands. You can see native animals and birds in their natural homes.

Can I do this walk? This walk is easy for everyone. You can do it by foot, wheelchair, or other mobility aids.

How easy is the path to use? The paths are mostly flat and wide with no steps. They are made of hard, packed gravel. There might be some bumpy spots because of rocks underneath. The paths might have edges, drops to water, or uneven ground without safety rails. When it’s wet, there might be muddy spots.

The bridge near the start of the walk is a bit hard to use (see photos).

The bird hides on the map are easy to get to. There is room to turn a wheelchair and look out the windows. The path to them is bumpy but can be rolled over. If you follow the map, this path goes downhill. There might be some worn-out spots.

There is room to travel side-by-side, turn a wheelchair, and take shorter paths. There is only one place to be dropped off and picked up. Parks Vic cars can go to all parts of the walk. Mobile phone service is good.

There are many easy-to-read signs.

Rest areas There is a shelter with old picnic tables and BBQs at the car park. The outdoor picnic tables and BBQs are old and have edges. Bird hides offer shelter. The walk is open to the weather, so be SunSmart. There are no food or drink services. Take your trash home.

Toilets There is an easy-to-use toilet at the picnic area. The drinking fountain outside is not easy to use. Bring your own water.

Dogs and bikes are not allowed.

Parking The car park has plenty of room. The surface is hard and mostly smooth with some leaves and twigs. You cross the car park to start the walk. There is no public transport or special parking spots.

Wooden logs mark the car park with a 1.25-meter gap. There are no curbs.
