Walking Mernda: the local loops

Mernda Creek Linear Park — A well-maintained bike path suitable for walking and running, offering natural beauty and viewpoints along the creek. Off-lead applies in the signed sections; carry the lead anyway. Benches and shade appear often enough for a slow dog.

Creek Park Dog Park — A fenced off-leash area with new surfaces, furniture, and a 'quiet dog' zone, located at the corner of Plenty Road and Mernda Village Drive. Off-lead applies in the signed sections; carry the lead anyway. A coffee stop is never far on the way back.
