Bayview CP Northwestern Circuit

Starting from the end of Days Road, this circuit track gives you a tour of the northwestern parts and borders of Bayview Conservation Park, crossing Serpentine Creek and its branches along the way. The Bayview Conservation Park Northwestern Circuit is a beautiful natural escape only 40 minutes from Brisbane. The circuit is perfect for those who are looking to ready themselves for longer journeys. Birdsong accompanies you through the whole walk, with wallabies and cockatoos adding to the natural scenery. Both bushwalkers and cyclists use the track, which can get crowded, so come during off-peak hours in the middle of the week, and you may very well have the place to yourself. Dogs are welcome on-leash. Keeping the app/map open is advised due to the abundance of intersecting tracks. Let us begin by acknowledging the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we travel today, and pay our respects to their Elders past and present.
