Wardell Rest Area - Meerschaum Vale NSW

The Wardell Rest Area is located 12kms north of Broadwater. A rest area is available on both sides of the highway. The area shown in these photos is on the western side of the highway looking north. The area has amenities and a picnic area. Highway noise is unavoidable. I could not find any signs prohibition overnight camping. However, if you do decide to stay here overnight you do so at your own risk.
