A grade one walk, but not suitable for wheelchairs or disability walkers.

Meeting and beginning at Cascades Gardens Park, Victoria Point (which has nearby public toilet facilities) we’ll traverse around the bush lined perimeter of the Victoria Point Water Treatment Plant which is adjacent to the Eprapah Creek and through into Cameron Court Park, which we will explore. Then crossing over the Eprapah Creek bridge and along to the bush and mangrove lined creek embankment. This is a there-and-back-again walk and insect repellent and sunscreen are recommended.

Directions: The meeting site is at Cascades Gardens Park and ample parking is available down the short road behind the park, which is ringed on the below map in yellow, and the entrance of which is directly opposite the Victoria Point AFL Sharks Club building on Colburn Avenue, Victoria Point.
