From the train station the track crosses a bridge over the freeway to continue down the hill to the bay and then returns via the same route. The track passes through a variety of environments with dryer vegetation at the top and moister rain forest like plants near the bottom.

It is very important that members of the public stay out of burnt bushland areas for the following reasons: 1) For safety reasons – only trees directly adjacent to the tracks/trails have been assessed for dangerous tree limbs. Trees inside the burnt areas, however, have been damaged by fire and branches/trees could fall down and injure someone. 2) To help the bushland regenerate – by keeping off the newly burnt ground it will protect and enable new growth to form 3) To prevent unauthorised tracks forming throughout the bushland Other Closure Information:
