Description

This walk is a casual but entertaining walk with plenty of attractions you can do with the family. You can enjoy these attractions with your family or you can have a jog on your own maybe even with your dog (as long as it is on a leash).
There is a cafe` that has a lot of food ranging from ice-cream to hot chips and coffees and milkshakes. If you want a train ride there is a stop where you can hop onto the state renown "Puffing Billy" or you can hop off from there and a quick stroll around and a quick bite to eat, before hopping on the train for the next ride. It is a photographers dream place to go to, there is a lot of things to take photos of including native flora and fauna including: fern trees, ducks and big chestnut trees just to name a few. In the summer there are performances that can be found at the amphitheater that are strewn out along the path and have different 5 minute performances. There is also a playground for the children and there is also a fitness/workout place for the adults who like to bench press everywhere! But anyway, overall this place is a fun and happy place go and see and I would recomend it to any tourist.
