About the Bunny Trail

A delightful trip down memory lane, the Bunny Trail is testament to the efforts of the Friends of Canadian Corridor volunteer group.

The true rail trail follows just a short section of the former Ballarat East-Buninyong (Bunny) Line, but you can continue following the alignment pretty closely along quiet suburban streets, through the Woowookarung Regional Park and Recreation Rd Bushland Reserve to Mt Clear. A loop can get you back to town using the Canadian Creek Trail for a total of 13.5km.

This trail follows a short section of the former Ballarat – Buninyong (Bunny) Line that served a bustling industrial area. The “Bunny” brought workers and raw materials to many Buninyong industries, with the main ones being a butter factory, tannery, brewery, box factory and market gardens.

Start of the rail trail near Dyte Pde, on the northern side of Victoria St [2024]
