Reviews
"Great place for a walk. Easy track and well maintained. Good parking and not too many people on the track. Thanks"
"Go and see the fairy Forrest, all ages can bike this track. Our less confident 5 yrold did this little track with us. If you go straight the whole way and come out near the train track, turn right and follow the other track back (it will be a wider walking track) and is fine to bike through."
"Fantastic walking track for all abilities and leashed dogs. The Family (and dogs) always excited for a walk through the forest and a visit to the dog park next door."
"Loved the pristine bush walk and beauty of a very tall and majestic trees... Spoilt with a variety of tracks and many thanks to the staff that keep this park open for families bike riders and the not so young..."
"What an incredible idea having a fairy door hunt. The full track of 50 mins went by without a complaint. The doors were so cute. We did get off track a few times so the walking track could have had some signs."
