About this rest area

Wangetti Southern Car Park is a tranquil and scenic stopover point advantageously furnished with ample shade. The locale, unfortunately, does not have restroom facilities. An enticing attribute is the frequent patrols by Douglas Shire rangers during late evenings, which contributes to maintaining order and ensures the site is reserved for its intended daytime use, providing a peaceful and secure environment for all visitors to enjoy.

There are no signs about anything but Douglas Shire rangers often visit late in the evening to move on overnighters (Source: multiple travellers)
