East: Diamond Creek Trail
About this page
The Diamond Creek Trail is 12 kilometres long and links Diamond Creek with the Main Yarra Trail. It starts at Nillumbik Park (Melway Ref 12 A5) and joins the Main Yarra Trail in Candlebark Park (Melway Ref 21 H12).
New bridge links Yarra Trail to Diamond Creek Trail
Jun 04 Manningham and Nillumbik councils have completed a new pedestrian/cycle bridge over the Yarra to link the Main Yarra Trail with the Diamond Creek Trail, downstream from where Diamond Creek joins the Yarra.
Previously cyclists had to use the Fitzsimmons Lane road bridge which offered a low level of service. The new bridge will provide better access to Eltham Lower Park and Candlebark Park.
