NATURE TRAIL

A 1 km circuit Walking Trail starts at an Information Board at the western end of the Park and follows the Stonyford Creek Gully, crossing the Creek over bridges

Markers denote points of interest.

The Trail passes through the former picnic area

The Stonyford Creek area consists of remnant native vegetation, ranging from typical riparian to a drier open forest vegetation type. Dominant species within this area include peppermint and messmate eucalypts, grey gums, wattles, banksias and native grasses. A variety of fern species are also common along the creek
