Walking Railway Estate: the local loops
Railway Estate Foreshore Promenade — Enjoy views of Ross Creek and the city skyline as you stroll along the paved promenade. Lead-on throughout unless council signage says otherwise. Benches and shade appear often enough for a slow dog.
Ross Creek Walkway — Follow the paved path alongside Ross Creek, with mangroves and occasional birdlife. Lead-on throughout unless council signage says otherwise. A coffee stop is never far on the way back.
