Bayview Conservation Area (Kidd Street Entrance)
Queensland
Multiple trails that crisscross the area. Includes the Birdcage Trail, an easy 1900m walk that is one of the many trails through the Bayview Conservation Area. Glimpses of the ever-growing suburbia nearby, the track winds through natural bushland with many native grass trees. Passes the "birdcage" itself, a quirky work of imagination.
As of July, 2025, the area was heavily battered by "Alfred" and next to it commenced a huge housing development. Likely, there will be another trailhead/ access in years to come.

Borallon Station Road to Fernvale - Part of BVRT
Brisbane Valley Rail Trail
This is a nice part of the BVRT, the scenery changes quite a bit along the walk, bush track to farm land to open pasture looking out to the mountains. You'll need to do a quick crossing of the Brisbane Valley Highway, easy, but just keep your wits about you. Along the way you'll pass Wanora and Fairney View stations. Just after Fairney View is a lovely little creek where a bridge once crossed, a nice spot for a break. After this there is the slightest of inclines, but that incline continues all the way to Fernvale. But once there you've got a great excuse for a pie!

Moreton Terrace Park
South East Queensland
Lovely flat walk long boardwalk and sandy track taking around 1.5 hours return, through mangroves and out to Caboolture river mouth. Broad views across Moreton Bay, shady and easy. At the board walk end cross the dog off-leash area and you see the sandy path begin, follow your walk through the mangroves at high tide or take the beach, however, the track remains in the mangroves for the most. You end at the point of the Caboolture River.

Fernvale to Lowood - Part of BVRT
Brisbane Valley Rail Trail
For the most part this section of the walk follows beside the Brisbane Valley Highway ie it gets noisy and there really isn't much in the way of shade at all. However, the views are nice looking out towards to the mountains and onto Lowood. Heading in to Lowood you'll meet up with a bend in the Brisbane river with some lovely views downstream, and a large colony of bats making home in the trees. Arriving into Lowood, you'll be rewarded with the first section of actual railway for the trail; Lowood was the original terminus for the BVRT. Lowood has a pub, bakery and nice cafes for refreshments.
