Killara – Woori Yallock

The trail continues to descend into the Yarra River flood plains as you pass through rich grazing land and across the 175m Woori Yallock Creek bridge into Woori Yallock. Magnificent views of the Central Highlands to the north-east.

Be prepared to stop at closed crossing for farmers moving stock. Please leave gates as you find them.

Killara

Site of the old railway station, the rural views, picnic tables and horse yards make Killara an ideal rest stop. The old stock yards and station platform were built in 1901 for the Syme family’s major land holding which stretched to Woori Yallock, some of the best beef country in the state.

Parking: off Sunnyside Rd, pedestrian/horse/bike access to rail trail.

Woori Yallock

The Woori Yallock Township is a 5 minute walk from the car park. It offers cafes and public toilets. A children’s playground is located across from the Woori Yallock station car park.

Woori Yallock is a good halfway point for the trail and a popular starting/finishing point for visitors.

The name derives from an Aboriginal term meaning “running creek”.
