Starting from Smith Street, Alphington, this walk takes you to Willsmere Park via the Darebin Creek Trail, going through Sparks Reserve along the way. A slice of nature in the busy city of Melbourne, this track can be perfect for a workout for both you and your dog. You'll notice the refreshing feel of the creek whether you're whizzing by or taking your time. There is drinkable water on both ends, along with toilets. The track can get quite busy, so avoid peak times for a more secluded experience. Keep an eye out for snakes, especially between October and April. There is an informational signpost on what to do if your dog gets bitten. Let us begin by acknowledging the Wurundjeri people, Traditional Custodians of the land on which we travel today, and pay our respects to their Elders past and present.
