Access to this trail is very easy, and you can join or exit the trail anywhere you like along the entire length

It is a very flat path that crosses a few busy roads, although all have traffic lights so that you can safely cross. There are some interesting metal sculptures along the way, and an overpass over the Main South Road, giving you a good view of the surrounds.
