Quarry, Wallaby and Glen Track Circuit

This circuit walk begins near the parking area on Wellington Road, Lysterfield, looping within the Lysterfield Park via the Quarry, Wallaby and Glen tracks. Starting along Logan Park Track, this walk leads into the park on a wide and well-maintained track through a beautiful forest setting. Many birds and kangaroos can be spotted along the way. There are some steep ascent and descents on this walk, and from the higher points there are great views over the Boral Quarry. You may encounter obstacles such as fallen trees in some parts, and in rainy weather the track can get pretty muddy. It's suited for moderate levels of fitness, and can be completed on foot or by bicycle. Let us begin by acknowledging the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we travel today, and pay our respects to their Elders past and present.
