Section 4 - Kelmscott to Armadale

From the Kelmscott Railway Station, ride south along Streich Avenue until the junction with Denny Avenue. You need to go straight through this intersection but care needs to be taken as it is a busy road that incorporates a rail crossing.

Care needs to be taken at the intersection of Streich Avenue and Denny Avenue.

Continue heading south along a concrete shared path that runs on the eastern side of Streich Avenue. The path crosses numerous residential driveways, so keep an eye out for reversing vehicles.

Continue on the shared path as it runs parallel with Streich Avenue and the railway line. You will pass by Challis and Sherwood railway stations. About 600 metres south of the first station, there is a rail crossing point and public telephone. The shared path crosses Galliers Avenue and Clarence Road, both of which are major traffic link points to Albany Highway, so care should be taken. The shared path ends at busy Armadale Road but resumes through Minnawarra Park on the other side.

The path goes through Minnawarra Park.

 
A red-paved path runs around and over a duck pond in the centre of Armadale.

Follow the path until you reach a small car park. Turn left into the Woolworths delivery road and then cross over Orchard Avenue which runs in front of the City of Armadale offices. On the other side of Orchard Avenue you will see a red-paved shared path heading east through the park. Follow this path as it winds past a duck pond, over a wooden bridge and around the rear of the Council buildings.

This is the completion of the Ride through the Hills routes. You can visit the many facilities in the Armadale shopping precinct, call in at the local tourist centre at 40 Jull Street or access the nearby railway station.
