The Great Southern Rail Trail

Nature & Parks

This trail is suitable for both the energetic and not-so-energetic outdoor enthusiast. Traverse lush farmland, historic bridges and native vegetation. Seize the opportunity to explore the villages spread along the trail.

Ride the Welshpool - Port Welshpool route with ease and comfort knowing that BIG4 Long Jettty Caravan Park is along the way.

You will be amazed at the unique stories and experiences they offer, as well as the terrific coffee, shopping and dining opportunities.

The full trail takes you from Leongatha to Port Welshpool and is 72km in total but it's been thoughtfully broken into sections that each has its own charms.
