Following The Path
The path starts about 300m south of Melton Highway and Kings Road intersection adjacent to Watergardens Shopping Centre, not far from Watergardens (aka Sydenham) station. Following the path is straight forward. When heading east from Watergardens Shopping Centre, change from the south side of the creek to the north side of the creek at Sunshine Avenue. Stay on the north side thereafter.
Enjoy the remnant vegetation to be found along the creek bank and follow the instructions below to arrive at the Maribyrnong River Trail.
In 2010 the trail was extended from Burrowye Crescent deep into the Taylors Creek valley. The trail along the valley is very rough but contains a great display of remnant vegetation including native grasses. Riders can exit the valley via an extremely steep dirt track on the east side of the creek leading up to Green Gully Road and Brimbank Park. This route should only be considered during dry conditions.

Famous quotes containing the word path:
“Childhood is an adventure both for children and for their parents. There should be freedom to explore and joy in discovery. The important discoveries for both parents and children seldom come at the points where the path is smooth and straight. It is the curves in that path to adventure that make the trip interesting and worthwhile.”
—Lawrence Kutner (20th century)
