from Emerald to Monbulk
Overgrown and uneven. Occasional decaying planks over the various creeks the route follows. Eventually the obstacle course drives one up the road to complete the journey

Walking the Eastern Dandenongs trail from Gembrook to Emerald
Parked in Emerald, took the 695 bus to Gembrook, walked the bike trail back. Mostly gravel and fairly flat, following the Puffing Billy narrow gauge line for long sections. Spectacular views coming out of Gembrook across open country, then into open forest past Cockatoo.
