They are accessible separately. However, they are not really suitable for wheelchairs as designated by the Salisbury Council as they are just gravel covered and too hard to traverse by wheelchairs.

I ...I tried visiting this today with mixed results. I was with my wife and our son who is two years old. This limited what we could do as we took a stroller. <br /><br />The Watershed Site was the last place we visited and was accessible. We walked from the Cafe to the corner of Port Wakefield Road and Salisbury Highway. There was an undercover eating area (a bit dirty) and a few good viewing points. We didn't explore further as we got a puncture and the little guy was getting tired. It appears that there are more tracks to the North that we didn't explore.<br /><br />We didn't try Magazine Road South. However we did try to access that area from Salisbury Highway. We parked on the Northern side near the yellow annotations on your map. There was a big information board that was clearly outdated. It mentioned the Multi-Function Police development, a term I hadn't heard in a long time. We were met with locked gates on the Northern side of Salisbury Highway which blocked our access to the trails and the bird hides. We found a path that took us to a culvert under Salisbury Highway to the Southern Side. This took us right up to near the yellow path on your map. Once again we found a locked gate. It looked like it hadn't been opened for a long time. :-(<br /><br />After walking back to the car we drove up further and tried Magazine Road North. Only my wife got out of the car here, but it wasn't promising.<br /><br />Thanks for the information you provided. It's unfortunate that the areas are being locked off.Jacobshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06857395475140659512noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4700416170445944536.post-45636507474603691852014-03-14T02:36:19.412-07:002014-03-14T02:36:19.412-07:00Not a problem at all, I'm glad it was of use t...Not a problem at all, I'm glad it was of use to someone :) Magazine Creek is the one I know as Whicker Road wetlands?
