Shared path along the creek, located in local reserves/ parks and a few quiet local streets. Traversing the suburbs of Newmarket, Ithaca and Jubilee. It seems that in early days of settlement, the creek was considered as a freshwater source for Brisbane, before the Enoggera Dam was built.

The wetland offers a nice long walking path, perfect for a peaceful stroll or bicycle ride. However, there's little to no shade, making it a bit challenging during sunny summers. The area has a lot of potential but could use some improvements to make it more engaging. Despite being somewhat secluded, it's still a pleasant spot for outdoor activities, but it could benefit from a bit of enhancement to make the experience more enjoyable.

There are a number of trails in the Mookin-bah Reserve. All relatively short but can be combined to walk a little over 5km. This walk started at the Greencamp Road entrance and took the Lorikeets then h9neyeater tracks before merging onto the Fairy wren track and walking to Chelsea Road. The track is signposted and straightforward with the only tricky part at the start of the walk. The walk starts in just a mown grassy track which quickly reaches an a junction that has no signs. Go left and you will quickly be on the bitumen path. The return journey is approximately 4.3 km
