Paperbark Forest Boardwalk
*** The Paperbark Forest Walk is closed. Reedy Creek Reserve is a small conservation area which unfortunately become overwhelmed by visitors, to the point where the walk, the forest and wetlands were being damaged. Literally thousands of people were visiting the site, ignoring the signage and causing the walk, the road and car park to become a foot and vehicle traffic jam. Please do no attempt to access the boardwalk or enter the reserve. ***
This short trail is an exciting walk for all the family, with stepping stones, boardwalks and water crossings as you meander through a magnificent and picturesque Paperbark Forest.

Round Hill Creek & Headland Track
This walk combines both the Creek and Headland Tracks and provides a great little stroll from Captain Cook's Landing Memorial, along the foreshore via the 1770 Butterfly Walk to Round Hill's Bustard Bay and Wave Lookout's with splendid views in all directions.
It's worth planning for a swim along the calm shoreline of Round Hill Creek. Look out for the Blue Tiger Butterflies especially in autumn.
