Fantastic Bushwalk from this office thru the Whistling Kite Wetlands. Water views and amazing native flora and fauna.This walking trail is one of the best on Russell Island. A fifth star would be for sigage posted near ferry to notify tourists of this great attraction. The full walk is 45 mins and you tour a great section of pristine Russell island.

We were four travellers, all keen cyclists, and are return visitors to the trail. Another two days of great cycling with the track in very good condition in the main. The trail is very well signposted, and the surface is incredibly good. There are a couple of creek crossings that are best negotiated on foot if your are not a confident trail rider, all the rest are great. Some over friendly magpies about at this time of the year but they are just protecting their families from the marauding cyclists!!

Experience a walking, riding or horseback adventure back to the late 1800s along the old Brisbane Valley railway line from Wulkuraka in Ipswich to Yarraman. Escape to a 161km off-road adventure trail brimming with breathtaking countryside, unique country towns, local attractions, old train stations and carriages, heritage-listed sites, and rich history of early settlers just 47km from Brisbane. It doesn't matter whether you have one day or a whole week, the BVRT has something to suit everyone – choose your own adventure! With the final link between Toogoolawah and Moore completed in 2018, the BVRT is the longest rail trail in Australia, spanning 161 kilometres. Most of the trail is now an excellent compounded gravel grading that provides a relatively smooth run, although there is the odd rocky section and you should always remain vigilant on rougher areas.

This is a fantastic trail. I did Yarraman to Fernvale. Had a great time and the work put in is really impressive. Some culverts are very steep and some surfaces are very rough but overall it’s very easy to follow. It’s great to have lots of little towns along the way with bakeries and cafes. I overnighted at the Linville hotel and the Esk grand hotel both of which were great places to stay with secure storage for bikes. The one major drawback are the birds during breeding season. I went mid november which should have been the tail end of magpie season. It wasn’t. I counted 17 different magpies swooping me 6 of which repeatedly struck my helmet and tried to go for my face. I tried the trick of staring them down while dismounting. That worked until toogoolawah where they came in pairs, every time you looked at one the other would come in from behind you, they followed me for a km. No idea how that is protecting a nest. Then there were the even worse butcher birds, had four of those all of which repeatedly struck my neck. They make no noise and are much faster. Try staring them down and they go straight for your eyes. The only other thing to be aware of is the heat. Two days were perfect with 6am starts. The third day I started a little later but by 12pm it was 37c with very high humidity. I’d suggest this will be a superb trail apr-Jun.

The Brisbane Valley Rail Trail is a recreational trail that traces the old Brisbane Valley rail line that commenced at Wulkuraka, near Ipswich, and continued to Yarraman, west of Kilcoy. This 20km section of the trail follows the former rail corridor from Diamantina Boulevard, in the Ipswich suburb of Brassall, to the rural township of Fernvale.
