Greytown to Woodside Trail

• The Greytown Cotter Street entrance has off-road parking space for five cars, and no designated mobility parks.
• There is a small on-road drop-off point at the Woodside Road midway point.
• The Woodside Railway Station end has large loose-gravel car park near the trailhead. There is extra tar-sealed parking available at Woodside Railway Station along with two designated mobility parks.

The Greytown to Woodside Trail can be accessed from three locations:

• The Greytown end via Cotter Street.
• The midway point on Woodside Road. Use the farm gate, located a few metres up the farm track.
• The Woodside end at Woodside Railway Station via Woodside Road.

Trail access is via a series of squeeze gates, varying in height between 620 to 700mm high. There are gates at each entry/exit, and some are heavy and are difficult to open. 

Take care as the trail crosses some active farm access roads.

Overall, the trail has a slight incline heading towards the hills. 

Gradients increase in the lead-up to each of the bridge crossings, from a slight run at 1:8 (7°) to a steady run of 1:6 (10°).   

The trail consistently has a compacted gravel surface.

The car park surfaces vary from loose gravel, dirt ruts, and holes. 

• The squeeze gates vary between 400-420mm in the squeeze, with 700-800mm wide clearance below. Their heights vary from 620-700mm.
• Other than the squeeze gates at the access points, the trail is consistently 2m wide. 
• Not all gates are easy to open.

A non-accessible toilet is available at Woodside Railway Station.

The first half of the trail from Greytown has four seats, including a picnic table. The second section has only one seat.
