Laverton Creek Trail
The Laverton Creek Trail is a shared use path for cyclists and pedestrians, which follows Laverton Creek in the outer western suburbs of Laverton and Altona in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. The southern part of the trail is now suitable for roadbikes. Following the Path The Hobsons Bay Coastal Trail crosses the Laverton Creek over a long wooden footbridge, some 0.5 km from the river mouth. The Laverton creek trail starts at this point. Head upstream - either side can be used - with a concrete path on the north side and an old track on the south side. If using the north side, cross to the south side of the creek, when the first road bridge at Queen St is encountered. Cross Queen St on the south side of the creek. The path is mainly concrete which previously had an intervening rough gravel section that became submerged in wet conditions, however the concreting of this section has now been completed. The path appears to come to an end at the juncture of Railway Ave and Merton St, 2.5 km from Queen St. Take to the road and cross under the railway line, along Merton St, over the rough bluestone surface.
