Glenfern Valley, Upwey

Glenfern Valley Bushland is a great little walk in the foothills near Upwey. Restoration of the bushland began in 2001 when local residents formed a Friends Group to conserve the natural beauty and vegetation. The walk is on undulating terrain and has some nice views and plenty to see.
