WATTLE PARK – SKYE

VARIATION III : Knox Tce – Windmill St

Circuit : 1 hour 10 minutes, 4km

   WINDMILL ST    

As before, follow along McBeath Drive and left down Knox Tce, noting the wildlife along the way!

Continue past Wyfield St, and turn left down Windmill St.  Enjoy the oleander bushes near the bottom!  At the end of this street is the old Magill Stone Mine.  There are two tracks here.

The track to the right leads back up to Coach Rd.  Take the left-hand track which passes through an old olive grove and past small old mine diggings.

The track emerges onto the end of Rawson Penfold Drive.

Follow up this Drive, turn left down Mary Penfold Drive through the Penfold Estate and past the winery (a stop here will lengthen the walk!), and finally left at Penfold Road.  A short walk brings us back to the Wattle Park shops.

  An adventurous alternative is to cut down from the Rawson Penfold cul-de-sac to the creekbed, walk under the pipeline, and emerge at Inez Court which branches off Mary Penfold Drive.
