Moonee Ponds Creek Trail – Southern Entrance

Highlight • Trail

The southern entrance to Moonee Ponds Creek Trail begins just north of Melbourne’s CBD, where the shared path runs alongside the creek corridor. This flat, sealed section suits walkers, runners, and cyclists, with some road crossings along the way. The trail connects with the Capital City Trail at its southern end and finishes just a few meters from Flemington Bridge. Shade is limited in parts, so sun protection is recommended during warmer months.

John Pascoe Fawkner Reserve

Highlight • Cycleway

As the Moonee Ponds Creek Trail passes through John Pascoe Fawkner Reserve, the setting opens into maintained parkland with paved shared paths running alongside the creek. This section feels more urban and organised, with large pavilion-style buildings and public facilities, including a drinking fountain near the main structures. The trail remains sealed and easy to follow, winding through scattered eucalypts and open grassed areas.

Kingsford Smith Ulm Reserve

Highlight • Bridge

At Kingsford Smith Ulm Reserve, the Moonee Ponds Creek Trail passes beneath a striking elevated railway trestle, where trains run overhead on steel supports above open parkland. The sealed shared path curves through wide grassy space, with scattered trees offering limited shade.

Moonee Ponds Creek Trail – Fenton Reserve

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Near Fenton Reserve, the Moonee Ponds Creek Trail follows a wide, sealed shared path alongside the concrete-lined creek, with open views toward Melbourne’s skyline. This section is flat and well maintained, making it suitable for walkers, runners, and cyclists. The trail is shared, so stay aware of faster-moving bikes. Cyclists are required to give way to pedestrians, and keeping left helps traffic flow smoothly. Shade varies, with exposed stretches that can feel very warm in summer.
