Main Creek
Main Creek runs into Bushranger's Bay near Cape Schanck. As its name suggests Main Creek is one of the major tributaries on the Mornington Peninsula. The two photos below show where Main Creek enters the sea at Bushrangrer's Bay. Photos: Warrick 5/7/2009
Pictures above and below taken in 2004
The two pictures above was taken in March 2008, higher up Main Creek, near Baldry's Crossing. It's very scenic as the creek cascades through a narrow rocky area. Watch a short VIDEO of this scene HERE.
There are several good walks in the area, as outlined from The AGE
You can walk downstream, from the road to the sea, or walk upstream from the carpark.
The Bushrangers Bay Walking Track and Main Creek Walking Track
7 km west of Flinders along Boneo Rd there is a signposted car park. A walking track (6 km return) leads south to the secluded beach at Bushranger's Bay. It is considered one of the best short coastal walks going.
It is also possible to walk north from the carpark into Greens Bush (see next entry) via the Main Creek Walking Track which follows the Main Creek valley through varied scenery (including eucalypt woodland, small fern gullies and grazing paddocks) to Lightwood Creek.
One of the nice things in the walk it to take your shoes off at the beach and wade in Main Creek as it crosses the sand and runs into Bushranger's Bay.
