Part of the River Heritage and Wetland Trail goes through the Sale Common Wetland. Here you will find a boardwalk which goes for ages winding its way through the freshwater marsh, red gum woodland and tall grassed areas. The 308 hectares reserve which is made up of approximately 70% of freshwater marsh is a picturesque, peaceful place to walk. For the more energetic to run or cycle. There are a couple of walks to choose from depending on your fitness level and time available.

Our Experience

We totally loved our walk, from the winding dirt track through the woodlands to the boardwalk. We couldn’t believe how far the boardwalk went. Unfortunately we didn’t make it to the lookout point as time was not on our side. On this day we were still to visit the Port of Sale and make our way back home to Melbourne.
