The path is easy to follow as it travels parallel to the Eastern Freeway.

600 m west of Middleborough Road the trail is located on the south side of the freeway.

East of that point it runs along the north side of the freeway.

Near the Bushy Creek Trail turnoff is a small wetland area with purple swamphens and the occasional little pied cormorant.

Koonung Creek Reserve also contains a small wetland which contains some native wildlife.
