Friends of Nyerimilang shop at the park entrance. The semi-formal gardens and lawns surrounding the homestead contain an interesting collection of exotic and native species. Majestic Gippsland Blue Gums and Coast Grey Box on the cliff tops contrast with marshland in the valley of Maringa Creek. Nyerimilang attracts many species of birds including honeyeaters, black swans, pelicans and birds of prey. There are three bird hides in the park. Princes Highway via the Kalimna West Road. There are plenty of road signs along the way. Nyerimilang is just 10km by road north-west of Lakes Entrance.

Nyerimalang has a nice old homestead and a gorgeous walk along the bluff with views over the lakes, returning up a forested valley with sea eagles overhead. There are also some interesting old farm buildings and a native plant garden.

Australia's largest and most beautiful inland waterways, the Gippsland Lakes are a network of lakes, marshes and lagoons covering over 600 square kilometres. The Lakes are separated from the ocean by coastal dunes known as Ninety Mile Beach. Bird and marine life thrive here, with lake dolphins and pelicans frequenting many locations.

The Gippsland Lakes are a series of lakes ... the largest of these lakes are Lake King, Lake Wellington and Lake Victoria. They cover an area of about 350 square kilometres. These lakes are collectively fed by the Avon, Thomson, Latrobe, Mitchell, Nicholson and Tambo rivers. These form the largest network of inland waterways in Australia making them a great place to visit for a variety of reasons... whether you enjoy fishing, water sports, swimming, walking or simply relaxing... This area of Gippsland has everything covered. There are also approximately 400 indigenous flora species and 300 native fauna species. Three plants, two of them being orchid species, are listed as endangered. There are also Southern Right whales and Humpback whales using the Lake Entrance area ... and the area is home to at least 50 species of dolphins which includes the Burrunan dolphin. It's a really wonderful place to visit all year round.

Awesome park for kids of all ages. Exercise equipment for adults, half court basketball, several playing areas. On the lake. BBQ facilities available, lots of shade, toilets big enough for prams with baby change area. The coffee/donut van was there while we visited and another cafe nearby. Spent 2 hours here.

What a wonderful, free facility for local dogs to exercise and visiting pets to discover. Only 1.2 kilometres down a country lane from the roadway, and a million new scents for your pooch to enjoy. Built on private land with the help of State Government funding, Brackenbush provides the perfect blend of safety with the freedom for happy dogs to run, sniff and play. 3 fully fenced paddocks with the middle one for the timid or unsocialised, it is a great solution for all pets to experience the country air and open spaces. Our GSP "Kasper" gets excited when the car is heading toward his favourite venue, and is off like a bullet once released into the large paddock. Everything has been well thought out, with water, pooper scoopers and holding cages all readily available for your dogs to have a great visit.
