Kenilworth Township Explore
Take a stroll through this charming hinterland village and sample the local food and giftwares.
Suitability
Suitable for all age groups and abilities. Some sections are not suitable for prams and wheelchairs as the trail is on grassy footpaths.
Highlights
Kenilworth is a charming hinterland village with plenty of character and can be a gastronomical adventure that will require a stroll around town to work off lunch. Cafes, bakeries, and the local cheese factory are popular tourist stops and come wintertime, the local showground is packed with campers.
This village trail circumnavigates the main street with its boutique shops and delicious smelling cafes then heads down to the main park ideally situated beside the Kenilworth Dairy factory. The backstreet takes you past the local Police Station to a peaceful corner lot with a picnic table that overlooks a horse paddock. You can enjoy this quieter section of the town here and watch the horses grazing peacefully.
Afterwards
There are a number of camping areas to stay overnight or for a few days if you’re keen for more time in the peaceful countryside.
Two nearby trails are Pioneer Park Explore to the north of Kenilworth and Little Yabba Park – Fig Tree Walk 6km to the south.

To the starting point: Take the Bruce Highway and turn off onto the Eumundi Kenilworth Road. Follow the signs to Kenilworth.
