Summary
This return walk starts at the Wimmera Bridge. This beautiful Track weaves and follows the Wimmera River and Burnt Creek
Description
You may like to park your car either near 3WM on the south west side of the bridge and walk under the bridge, or on the south east side of the bridge near the start. The track then winds through the trees providing a great natural setting to walk. There are a few seats along the way to have a rest and enjoy the view if you wish. The track follows the Wimmera River for a start before meeting up with Burnt Creek. Once both rivers meet, the track then follows Burnt Creek past the relatively new residential area until meeting up with Williams Road at the bridge. Simply retrace your steps back to the beginning to enjoy the scenery both ways or arrange for someone to pick you up at the end.
