Dookie Rail Trail
This short but sweet flat gravel track gives you a 7.7km taste of Dookie’s rich farming country. To the east of Dookie, the trail meanders through the orange and olive groves of Yabba Flats. Look out for Willy the Wombat, who lives under the road drain at the third intersection. To the west, the trail enters the open cropping country with wide skies home to families of wedge-tailed eagles, kites and hawks.
