Canyon Walk follows a well-signposted track along both banks of the river, passing a small canyon carved by the Ovens River and historic water races from early mining days. The southern bank from Howitt Park is sealed and wheelchair accessible, while the northern side includes steps and short, steeper sections. Suspension bridges allow you to create short or longer loops. It’s an easy to moderate walk overall, with birdlife and wildflowers common in spring.
