3.5km one way – 1-1.25 hours one way – hiking/biking – hills
This is a multi-use trail so watch for bikers. Follow the river’s edge to see the Mersey in all its different moods. From the trail’s parking and picnic area, head along the river, up into the darker woods, and back to quiet, still Mersey pools. Listen to the swish of the lush grasses as you pass through. The trail forks as you near the campground; you can continue around Slapfoot trail or walk your bike over the floating bridge and the canoeists at Jakes Landing and continue to Merrymakedge Beach.
