The trail is really long and nice with all the trees and the reserve. Today was the perfect weather to enjoy the breeze and sweat it out.
There are benches to take a pause from the walk to appreciate the nature around you.
However, beware of the snakes. I did encounter one and have added the video here.

A reserve with facilities which allow kids, friends and families to have BBQ, picnic, read, sunbathe, walk your dogs, go fishing, swim (if you dare), jog, cycle, enjoy the nature and exercise. Remember to bring sunscreen or blankets. The public toilet is not good for washing the dining utensils.
If you want to play volleyball, badminton baseball, football or do other group sports, you should choose an area away from the trail and the river (better with trees or woods as barriers) and watch out for the bikers and pedestrians. Some trails are not very good for riding the bikes.
There are many animals, including bees, butterflies, flies, ducks, geese, water birds, snakes (they don’t bite you but flee), jellyfish and fish. Some birds look like hens and chickens on the other side of the river. I love watching the ducks and geese swim, dive, feed on the water plants and catch fish. So, apply insect repellent.
The winds in the corridor under the shadows are cold but the sunlight warms me.

Memories of taking our young teen EDFL players to this ground back in the 2000's. Now to see the park in really good condition, with well maintained trails and open space for picnics, children's playground, new trees and plants.
Good place to park and walk along the Maribyrnong.
I lead hikes for Escaping Your Comfort Zone body positive adventure group and Canning Reserve is a great starting point because of the parking and toilets.
Perfect distance from the reserve to Solomon's ford & back for an evening stroll.
Also love the picnic shelters for a post-walk snack or lunch after a daytime walk!

Nice place never expected to be that close and easy to reach. Place to relax, picnic, BBQ, and to top it up play ground for the kids.
Best part of our neighborhood! Great for a riverside stroll, a picnic, bird watching and kayaking for some!
Great place to to come for a walk jog or run, nice football oval(home of avondale fc) or a bikeride along the river. Bring the kids for a play on the playground or a fish, or bring the whole family for a a bbq.....pretty much covers all your outdoor needs form sunrise to a sunset outing.
The reserve is a great place to come with family or friends. It has plenty of play ground for the kids to play on including a flying fox. Kids will be easily entertained. Also has plenty of BBQs with two shelted table and seats. Runs along side of river with the walk and bike tracks nearby. The only downer is that it too close to the main road but it's surprisingly quiet.
