Summary

this gentle walk is dog friendly and the roads are well made, whilst also including descents and falls over the hill side gradients. it also runs along side puffing billy railway!

Description

this walk is a must do if you happen to live in emerald. it includes multiple access points such as the path behind emerald primary school, railway road and (show here) beaconsfield-emerald road. it even includes a small car park. the down side is that some sections have a high gradient. the lower section (the south-east most path) runs near a calm river with some wildlife sightings (duck!), but this is a dogs on leash zone. alternatively you are able to take the higher path which is dog friendly. most of the area is dogs off leash, so it is great for walks! the path also has a fitness area and a BMX park. but most of all, it runs next to the puffing billy railway! it is a real treat to be right next to the railway and to watch the train go past... remember to wave!
