About the Walking Trail

Enjoy a stroll around the lake in the Craigburn Farms Shared Trails network in Sturt Gorge Recreation Park. Start from the trailhead on Bonython Way, and follow the Lake View Trail (marked with blue markers), walking downhill towards the lake, then following the loop around the lake.

The easiest place to start the hike is near the end of Bonython Way, Craigburn Farm, near house #56 because car parking here is easy. You can also start from the main Craigburn Farms Shared Trails trailhead (start at step 15 of the walk directions below.)

The trail is a shared use trail with mountain bikes (which on this trail should be ridden at walking pace only.)

You can also look at our 5.8km walking loop, or our 8.5km walking loop, or combine the two into a single 10.7km loop.

You can also reach this hike by:

• Bus, via Stop 35B Grand Boulevard, Craigburn Farm, which is 1km east of the trailhead
• Train, via Coromandel Railway Station, which is north east of the trailhead. It’s a 800m walk to the start of the City of Mitcham’s Trevor Traverse trail (off Trevor Terrace), which you can follow for about 1km to join the loop on Woodlands Link, Craigburn Road or the main Craigburn Farms Shared Trails trailhead (start at step 15 of the walk directions below.)
