Linking Williamstown with the south-eastern bayside suburbs, this 69 kilometre path offers a rewarding challenge to both the serious cyclist and the weekend pedaller. From historic Williamstown take the punt across the Yarra River beneath the Westgate Bridge and then follow the path which runs along the beach right around to Mordialloc. Here it goes inland through parkland and the canals of Patterson Lakes to finish at Kananook train station. Highlights along the way include Westgate Park, Station Pier and St Kilda. The surface is mainly asphalt. The main hazards are dogs, roller-bladers and walkers especially in the popular section around St Kilda and Elwood.
