Noojee Trestle Bridge Rail Trail - Trail Description

The impressive Noojee Bridge. Terry Lee - 2008

Location: Gippsland, 100km from Melbourne

Start/end: Noojee to Trestle Bridge

Region: Gippsland, Victoria

Description

A short trail surrounded by tall forest with an impressive restored trestle bridge (with substantial guard rails). The terrain offers a gentle climb from Noojee and is well shaded and protected from wind.

In late 2007, the Department of Sustainability and Environment carried out extensive repair and maintenance work on the bridge to ensure the preservation of this icon.

This trail is on the same former railway line as the Rokeby to Crossover Rail Trail.

Last updated June 2010.
