About the Inner Circle Rail Trail

An entry-level rail trail of 5km that follows the route of the Inner Circle Line past the Melbourne Zoo, numerous parks, cafes and a sizeable collection of the city's preserved Victorian homes.

This shared path, which replaced a railway line running between Royal Park and Rushall stations, is a wonderful introduction to rail trails for the whole family, with easy gradients and parks, play equipment and cafes to break the journey. The remaining railway infrastructure is a great talking point for first-time visitors.
