Kurrum Yallock – the Plenty River is Melbourne’s third river. It is
a defining feature of the region weaving its way through local
suburbs and parklands. It is oft en hidden from general view,
emerging at bridges and along its extensive trail network.
While diminished since European settlement, the River
provides an important environmental, wildlife corridor
and recreational resource, along with many links to its
settlement heritage.
The Kurrum Yallock walks aim to guide people along
the River Trail, while providing insight into key
aspects of our recent history, an opportunity for
reflection and an enhanced enjoyment of the
River’s special environment and landscape.
