[10][11] The trail then passes through Bushy Park Wetlands in Glen Waverley,[12] before crossing under High Street Road.

The western end of the road leads to Glen Waverley station 2.6 km long council-designated bicycle route through back streets.

1.6 km further south, the trail crosses a footbridge at the most northern end of the Jells Park wildlife lake.

The trail narrows between the creek and some houses and 600 m from Police Road opens out onto Tirhatuan Park, the homestead of Reverend James Clow.

At McCrae Street, south of the Thomas P. Carroll Reserve, a turn-off leads to the Hallam Bypass Trail through a short on-road section.

To continue on Dandenong Creek Trail, one must loop over the bridge but maintain the original south westerly direction.

It continues down Stud Road to Burwood Highway, at Westfield Knox, where the Blind Creek Trail can be found.
