The man-made wetlands were established by Clarence City Council to trap and treat stormwater from its surrounds in Lauderdale.

The wetlands consists of a series of channels and bio-retention basins which allow water to be filtered by planted native rushes and sedges. The area has been transformed to a vibrant wetland community which hosts a variety of insects, birds, native mammals, fish and other fresh water aquatic biota.

The track goes around the perimeter of the wetlands and connects to the Tangara Trail at the southern end of Roscommon Reserve.
