WHAT TO EXPECT

The Saltwater Creek to Frankston Reservoir trail is an easy to moderate hike (166m of elevation) and requires a base level of fitness to complete.

This hike includes stairs, some hills, occasionally walking on the road and boardwalks which can be slippery when wet.

The trail includes some beautiful views of the bay, some great lookouts, trail bridges, boardwalks, native fauna and the Frankston Reservoir Dam Wall Walk and visit past a local icon - Victor the Goat!

Starting from Olivers Hill Boat Ramp Carpark, this hike is around 10kms return.

The Hike should take between 3.5 to complete followed by a lovely meal in Frankston at the Hotel Lona where we can enjoy a post hike drink and food.
