Riversdale Road. If crossing at the Riversdale Road lights riders can simply continue straight ahead along Riversdale Road. The trail resumes at the end of Riversdale Road alongside the carpark of the golf club. Regardless of which route is being taken beyond Station Street, trail signage in this area is virtually non-existent, and great care needs to be taken to avoid getting lost.

An underpass of Warrigal Road, completed in August 2011, now allows easy access to the path on the east side of Warrigal Road, at the north side of the creek.
281:. The main Gardiners Creek Trail continues to the left, crossing the Solway Street Bridge that was rebuilt and opened in late 2011 after being washed away by flood waters in February 2011. Over the bridge the path continues through a small parkland ending on Ryburne Avenue opposite the very southern end of the

Blackburn Creeklands - through Blacks Walk, Kalang Park and Furness Park to Blackburn Road; the path is unsealed through this section so slower speeds are advised.

The
Gardiners Creek Trail continues north east, via a path on the north side of the Box Hill Golf Course, to the intersection of Canterbury and Middleborough Roads in Box Hill South. It then travels on a shared bicycle/footpath beside Middleborough Road past R.H.L. Sparks Reserve and ends at a
