Weir Reserve is a beautiful and peaceful spot along the Nepean River. It has plenty of parking, clean public toilets, and picnic areas, making it perfect for a family outing or a relaxing day outdoors. The walking path beside the river offers lovely views and is great for a leisurely stroll. There are also good spots for fishing, and the calm riverside setting makes it an ideal place to unwind and enjoy nature. A great place to escape the busy city and spend some quality time by the water. Highly recommended for walking, picnics, fishing, and simply relaxing.

Habibi, this spot is actually such a vibe! The area is honestly so nice, and that walk along the river is everything. Hearing the water while you stroll is so peaceful—it’s the perfect way to clear your head and just enjoy the moment. There are so many cute little spots to set up a picnic with the group, and thank god they actually have toilets there too. It’s such a calm, beautiful area; we really had the best time just relaxing and soaking it all in. Definitely a hidden gem!

Part of the great river walk Workin’ down in Jamisontown, Penrith, I find myself headin’ to the Weir Reserve along the Great River Walk a couple of times a week—fair dinkum, it’s my go-to spot to clear the head. There’s just somethin’ magic about strollin’ by the river, takin’ in those ripper views. Before I kick off my walk, I usually grab a few snacks and an energy drink from a local servo. Then it’s all about hittin’ the path, takin’ it easy, and enjoyin’ the vibes. The locals are tops—friendly as anything! You’ll get a few nods, smiles, and the odd “G’day” as you go. Makes you feel right at home. There are heaps of benches to park yourself on, perfect for soakin’ up the scenery or catchin’ up with family. And the paths? Smooth as, and well-looked after. Whether you’re out for a bit of a sweat, a snap of the river, or just a cruisy arvo, this place ticks all the boxes. If you’re swingin’ by Penrith—or even if you’re a local who hasn’t had a crack yet—get down here. The Great River Walk, especially Weir Reserve, is bloody unreal!

Absolutely beautiful spot along the Nepean River, away from the crowds. There are plenty of places to sit yourself down for a picnic. The toilets are well kept also. The river is beautiful as it rages over the weir. Lots of birdlife like kookaburras coming over for a feed.
