This activity provides two alternative loops, for the less mobile it is a short ramble (approx 4km) along Hunts Creek on paved footpaths and walkways, but the more adventuresome can break off and follow a bush walking trail to the Balaka Falls at Carlingford (total approx 7km), returning to Blackburn Ave by suburban streets.
