Greenway Bank Heritage Trail

Highlight • Rest Area

It looked very good but as I have no small children, I did not enter. There are picnic benches near abouts too so a full day of fun for the family can be had.

The Grotto and Gene's Grave

Highlight • Structure

Fun little walk through to the nature reserve but the grotto itself has mystical notes to it too if you check out the floor design.

Lovers' Tree

Highlight • Natural

I thought this was charming.

I have not before seen such a graffiti carved trunk of lovers' initials.

I hope their love lasts as long as the initials remain etched.
