Description
This loop walk takes you behind the Geelong Baseball Centre and alongside the Waurn Ponds Creek to the Cobbins Farm chapel and back along the other side of the creek. It is very accessible for families, as it is across the road from the Waurn Ponds Shopping Centre and adjacent to Leisurelink. It is a lovely little escape from such a highly used area.
