O'Keefe Rail Trail parking

Great spot to sit relax and get your zen on. Also a good spot for fishing if you’re keen.

Great essy ride

Nice day ride. Great scenery, even more beautiful at the moment given lake eppalock is full and everything is green. Great ride in winter. Track is well made and maintained.

Excellent rail trail. Take plenty of water with you because there's not much along the way.

The O'Keefe Rail Trail parking are is really a place you can park your car so you can access the trail at this point. There is a dirt track you walk down (it helps to have good hiking boots) and you will see the trail not far from where you parked (refer photos for a visual guide) Tread carefully over the cattle guard.
You can go left or right, to the left (heading towards Derrinal) there is a pedestrian/bicycle bridge. Great area for photographers wanting to capture the dead trees in the water. Keep an eye out for grazing cows that will be around, even though the its accessible to the public, the land is private. No facilities here.

Nice little picnic spot after a quiet bike ride. At Mt. Ida Creek.

Good for photos on the right days

It's generally nice and in good condition but between Bendigo and Axedale there is a high risk of being attacked by unleashed dogs or hit by a dirt bike.

My dad left me and we had to go find him. He was here making custom tables. Very disappointed in the view, as it did not inspire him.
