Kyneton Oxygen Walk
Kyneton Oxygen Walk
Scenic and steep in places but that's helps you appreciate the fresh air. That's why I've called it the Oxygen walk.

Description
I love this walk because it's an easy out-the-front-door journey and yet it makes me feel miles away.
I meander through streets lined with gorgeous Kyneton homes and gardens, pass scenic lookouts over the Campaspe River, stroll alongside the majestic trees of Wedge St, pass historic structures like the old hospital where my five brothers and I were born, pass the old stock water trough, and end up at my most favourite street of all: Brocklebank Drive ? a peaceful, verdant space where dappled sunlight dances through branches that hang joyously overhead. But best of all the air smells sweet and clean.

Points of Interest
1. Historic houses
I like to admire these lovely houses. They make the town a pleasure to walk around.
2. Stones
I like the way these stones decorate the street.
3. River view
Our stretch of the Campaspe River is beautiful, though it did flood recently after heavy rains.
4. Old historic hospital
My brothers and I were born here. At present, it's future is uncertain. Will it be sold to the developers? Will it become a community facility? Would be good to see it preserved.
5. Wedge Street
Tree line boulevard. Pretty in spring, cool in summer, stunning in autumn. If only all our streets could look like this!
6. Trough
For a time when horses and carriages were our main form of transport (apart from walking of course!).
7. Brocklebank Drive
Always an amazing spot for a wander. The fresh air from the trees is amazing, especially after walking up a steep hill!
