Information

A favourite leisure spot for locals, Marshall Rock Reserve has been the location for many community barbeques and picnics dating back as far as 1913. The reserve remains a great place for bushwalking, bird watching and viewing the wildflowers and offers free camping with some basic facilities including a toilet, and a number of firepits. There are two rocks here Marshall Rock and Gardeners Hill with the campsite and picnic area in the middle. There are 2 very easy short walk trails. From the top of Marshall Rock you can see Lake McDermott, vast agricultural lands and even the Bencubbin Wheatbins. The Reserve covers 1.4 square kilometres and is bounded by private farming land on every side.Marshall Rock is eight kilometres from the town of Bencubbin. The rock was discovered in 1836. The wildflower season runs from June to October.
