Parks & Nature
My favourite walk 1.5hrs, easy walk, in Arrowntown, go to Sawpit Gully Walk in the Bush Creek Reserve. Park in the big carpark by the river and turn left, walk over the wee bridge or walk through the stream, and walk towards the west. When you come to trail markers near the big water pipe you will see Sawpit Gully Walk. Also on google Maps
