What people say
Great walk I can't believe this is so close to the city and right next to Wollstonecraft station. I highly rate it, I enjoyed myself. Spotted lots of birds
Perfect place to relax, see nature and walk. But beware, we saw the most dangerous ant in the world, Jack Jumper! watch out when stepping.
This trail is a hidden gem as soon as you walk down from Smoothey park it takes you deep into the bush. It’s hard to believe that you are minutes away from the hustle of pacific highway. Good for walking and running with some steep parts. An amazing getaway from the city above and connected with badangi and berry island reserves.
This is such a great trail. It's usually pretty quiet and gets a little dark about an hour before sunset, so be careful not to go too late. I like to trail run along this reserve but hiking/walking is also good. I prefer the afternoons as the lighting is gorgeous
Amazing place to go for a walk hidden away between Berry Island and Wollstonecraft Station. Great fun when it's raining. From the Berry Island end of the track you can also continue into the Badangi Reserve.
