From a 2017 Bushcraft Trip:
There’s a little dead end road towards the last 5km of the S30 which has massive overhanging trees and Albert knows it well so nagging to check it out again started.
We were the only car in the dead-end loop and it was cool in the shade and peaceful so I switched off and we enjoyed a few buffalo cooling off and plenty bird life including Bateleurs, snake eagles, etc coming down for a drink.
