Rail Trail...

Free your senses as you step on the track, breathe the bush perfume and hear the wind whisper through a filigree of branches.

As you walk through dappled shade, hear the songs of native birds. Occasionally the call of the Lyrebird resonates through the trees.

A creek meanders by the track, home to a small population of native geese and ducks.

Wallaby, Echidna and Goanna all inhabit the track's surrounds.

In season, wild flowers splash their colours - the Orchids will astound.

Resplendent with tree ferns, the 13 kilometre track will take you past historic culverts and onto the site of the Old Darlimurla Railway Station and beyond.

A magic ramble for riders, walkers and runners alike...
