Seasonal creek

Highlight • River

Along the reservoir circuit, a small creek feeds into Gold Creek Reservoir. In warmer months, this section is often dry, leaving a rocky channel underfoot. After rainfall, however, water can flow through the gully and you may need to hop across the shallow stream using exposed stones. The surface is uneven and can be slippery when wet, so take care when crossing, especially after sustained rain.

Gold Creek Reservoir

Highlight • Lake

Gold Creek Reservoir, also known as Gold Creek Dam, sits on the edge of Brisbane’s western bushland and offers a quiet walking experience around a small, sheltered body of water. The reservoir was originally built to supply potable water for the region and now provides a peaceful backdrop for a loop walk of roughly five and a half kilometres through mixed wet and dry sclerophyll forest.
