bluewater trail

If your walker, runner, or bicyclist, you'll love the Bluewater trail A very wide paved trail that goes for several miles. It's a very peaceful walk from the lagoon to the Botanical Gardens. A great area to get in some exercise or just enjoy a leasurely walk.

Such a great view. Not too long of a walk so you aren't physically drained but still provides some great exercise opportunities.

Get on your bike or walk away the afternoon, the Bluewater trail is one of the best walking/running tracks I have ever been on. It's great for the region & makes you actually want to go for a walk on it. Give it a go

We walk the trail every week with our two dogs and thoroughly enjoy the experience. the pathways are immaculate and really well maintained with lots of picnic benches and stopping off points along the way. A credit to Mackay Regional Council.

The Bluewater trail is my preferred running trail when I visit Mackay. It is well maintained with lots of scenery to look at. Plenty of other runners to pace yourself with along the track, especially in the mornings.

Art, history, a beautiful view and exercise to boot! Lots of photo opps for a mad keen photographer like me. Pack a water bottle and hat!

I really loved the bluewater trail. I used it every day when I was in Mackay. I would also like to see some metal signs letting you know the details of the trail and pointing out items of interest such as the shopping centre, the mall etc. Loved it. Good on you Mackay City Council.

Follow the path along the river. My girls liked the playground outside the Bluewater Lagoon, where there are barbeques and picnic tables.

This is a wonderful trail that winds itself way around the blue Pioneer River. One of only two blue water rivers in Qld. Excellent for a family walk and a serious run

A very safe and scenic way to see some of the attractions of Mackay. Excellent track for bikes and walkers with lots of options to take along the way.

Great walk/bike/run track. Some areas don't have a great deal of shade so slip, slop slap! Also, some areas are quite isolated, i.e. there are no shops/people nearby, so be aware if you are security conscious.Such a great asset to Mackay, love going here & exercising in a really nice setting.

This trail winds around the edge of the city from the Mackay bypass to the city centre. It's probably around 15 Kms overall and is a relatively new trail built by the council. Could be used by runners, cycles, or a walk. There are lookout points, cafés and restrooms along the way. Takes you past multiple sight seeing opportunities, through the parks and city. Definitely for family or couples. Great exercise.

A great initiative. Every time I am out running, walking or biking, lots of others are too. I think the trail is great.
