Port of Sale Accessible Walk - Walking Maps

The Port of Sale is Wellington Shire’s cultural and entertainment hub - making this a jam-packed walk or roll. Enjoy the arts, cafés, BBQs, picnics, walks, water and rural scenery.

How accessible is the path?
This walk is accessible for everyone. It is easy to do by foot, in a wheelchair or with any other mobility aid. A map sign of the port is provided. The Pioneer Walk and Borun and Tuk cultural sections have accessible interpretive signs. Path widths are greater than 1.5 meters. Paths are smooth, sealed concrete. They are exposed to the weather. No steps are encountered on the walk as mapped.

The path slopes towards the port. Gradients are generally mild. Switchbacks are used to moderate steeper slopes. Manual wheelchair users may require some assistance. Path edges abut to grass. Jetties have wheel buffers above drop offs to water.

There is space for wheelchair side by side travel, turning and passing. Shorter walks are facilitated by vehicle parking all along the path. Mobile coverage is good.

Canal Rd is crossed via a marked crossing signed for 20kph.

Rest areas
The area is very well maintained. Seating connected to the path is provided. Not all have back or arm rests. BBQs, shelters, indoor and outdoor picnic tables (note: some have an edged structural metal underneath) are provided. Food and drink can be purchased on the walk (check opening hours).
Accessible toilets and drinking water fountains are provided.

Dogs must be leashed. Cyclists may share paths. The port can be subject to flooding.

Public transport
Buses 1, 3, 4 and 6 stop at Desaily St by the Art Gallery onto a kerbed sealed footpath. There is passenger information, but no shelter or seating.

Parking
There are several designated accessible parking spaces. These are generally oversize or have protected side zones with ramped access direct to the path. Surfaces are sealed, smooth and either flat or on slight slopes.

Conditions may change. If you notice any variations, please let us know.
