About the Walking Trail
A gentle walk through stands of tall trees following Fourth Creek from the lower carpark on Stradbroke Road, past picnic areas to the First Falls carpark.
The first half of the trail is compacted gravel, and the second half is bitumen, both about 1 metre wide. The trail is suitable for prams, although there is a short incline near the start, just beyond the Morialta Playground and after the footbridge.
You can walk your dog on this trail, from the recreation area to the First Falls carpark, providing it remains under your control on a lead.

Extend this walk with any of the following trails that start at the First Falls carpark:
- Morialta Falls Plateau Hike (4.1km)
- Morialta Falls Valley Walk (1.7km)
