We have previously explored St Johns Bush and wanted to incorporate the beautiful nature reserve into one of our longer circular walks.

This walk does just that, as well as passes through the reserves and playgrounds (Rutherford Reserve has a flying fox) within the suburb of Saint Johns. This walk suits adults as well as primary school age children. St Johns Bush has signposts to help us learn about the native trees and ferns.
