About the Cooks to Cove Greenway

The Cooks to Cove Greenway is an environmental and active travel corridor linking the Cooks River at Earlwood with the Parramatta River at Iron Cove. It mostly follows the route of the Inner-West Light Rail and Hawthorne Canal, and features bike paths and foreshore walks, cultural and historical sites, cafes, bush care sites and a range of parks, playgrounds and sporting facilities

The Greenway is a 6km shared path that connects two of Sydney’s most popular trails, stretching from the Cooks River in Earlwood through the heart of Sydney’s inner-west to the popular Bay Run on Parramatta River at Iron Cove.

The Greenway is a high quality fully-paved path that is suitable for all types of users. Its features include 8 dedicated artworks, several short tunnels, cultural and historical sites, picnic areas, bike stands, cafes, bushcare sites and a range of parks, playgrounds and sporting facilities that sit alongside the path.

Sydney’s newest rail trail was officially opened by Inner West Council on 14 December, 2025.
