Coogoorah Reserve

Excellent water ways and walking trails to explore. If you are on the water look out for annoying children who like to jump in next to your boat getting you rather wet.

Great place for a picnic. Save enough to let the kids run free, lots of water birds, plenty of shade, playground, toilets, and running water tap by the picnic area. Ample parking. Beautiful spot. The water is quite shallow, but great for kayaks!

We went on a day with miserable weather, but the reserve has a lovely playground for the kids, picnic tables galore, 2 good BBQ stations, lovely paths around the river and into some bush.
The reserve could do with another few undercover shelters with shelter but one group can gather out of the weather.

What a wonderful surprise. The playground is ideal for kids, the walkways are well maintained, there is space for picnics, extensive bike paths, and the location very restful.

Really nice reserve. Quiet, peaceful, toilets, playground, good walking tracks around the river.
Access for prams and wheelchairs.
Just needs some more information on the reserve itself as we are from out of town and wanted to know more about it.
The water is a turquoise blue!
Not far from town.

Fabulous spot to go bird watching. Heaps of paths and bridges.
The water is an odd creamy blue colour and there are signs warning not to go in the water as it's quite toxic at the moment.

Very attractive place to relax or walk. Lots of birds around and very peaceful feel.

Excellent walks, scenic views,and plenty of play areas for the kids.

I do bird photography as a hobby and this place is a heaven. Highly populated area with different species. Highly recommended for birders and good for jogging and walking too.

A beautiful nature walk along a picturesque part of Anglesea. So accessible.

Had amazing time with the family. Beautiful river. Kayaking was fun!

great facilities..pirate theme playground for the kids

Perfect spot for a break on Great Ocean Road. Picnic areas, kayaking and motor boat rides on Anglesea River. Kayaking is $30 for an hour and a worthwhile experience except ducking under the first bridge. Motor boats are $35 for 0.5 hours. Good spot for swimming including jumping of the bridge. Water is deep and watch out for submerged objects.

Lovely place. Not that far off the road and with houses around, it still is such a Relaxing, with a lagoony river winding through with lots of water birds, magpies, kookaburras, people, kids. Even saw someone on there stand up Paddle board. There is a decent play area with a great Pirate shipwreck. Heaps of walking tracks. Seems to get busy at first light with people going for jogs, bike rides n walks with there dog's, kids, and babies. Dogs need to be on a lead at all times. BBQ area push button hot plate nice n clean and there are Toilets.

This park has something for everyone. From a pirate ship play ground to bike trails, board walks, kayaking on the river and through the estuaries to jumping off the bridges and swimming with the kids in the most popular areas. There are numerous jetties for fishing. The park is well organised and popular. A lovely spot for a picnic lunch or just a break from the beach!

Came across this place while on our way to Lorne as the kids were hungry and we decided to stop for a bbq/lunch. We enjoyed every moment we were here and so did the kids. Very clean and lots of shady spots, kids play area and bbqs (electric). An awsome lake that runs thru this place is perfect for families who want to kayak/rowing etc. I recommend this place to every family that wants to make a day out.

A nice quite reserve in anglesea. Equally good for the kids. For fishing beginners this spot is recommended where you can try your luck and catch some small or medium sized breams.

Amazing spot in Anglesea. Plenty of parking, many bench seats, several grills, a nice playground, wonderful scenery and walking tracks. A perfect place to relax after a day of swimming in Anglesea.

Fantastic! Loved this park and the surroundings.

This is a lovely spot for walking the dog or bike rides. There is even a playground.
