Sportsmans Creek Canoe Trail

Lower Southgate, New South Wales, 2460

Explore a rare coastal wetland with an easy paddle along the tree-lined creeks of Everlasting Swamp National Park. Canoeing gives you a rare opportunity to quietly see jabiru and brolgas in their natural habitat.

Launching at Woody Creek you’ll paddle to the right, gliding past green rushes and violet water lilies as ducks take flight. Leave the outside world behind as the sounds of frogs and calls of birds take over.

Where Woody Creek meets Sportsmans Creek, paddle left along Sportsmans Creek. Continue for 5.1km shaded by old red gum, swamp oak and paperbark trees before turning around to return to Woody Creek. Keep your binoculars handy and go quietly for your best chance to see plentiful wildlife drawn to this wetland, known to birdwatchers as the Kakadu of the south’.
