The Blind Creek Trail, in the outer eastern suburbs of Melbourne, in the Australian state of Victoria,[1][2][3] is a shared-use path for cyclists and pedestrians, which follows the Blind Creek from the Dandenong Creek Trail in Wantirna South to the Ringwood - Belgrave Rail Trail in Boronia.

This trail is one of the major shared use trails which runs through the City of Knox and runs past Westfield Knox and the Tim Neville Arboretum along its 11.5 km route. During November 2008, directional signage was installed along most of the path to assist users in guiding themselves to their desired destinations.

An interactive map of the trail as well as others in the Melbourne area is available here.
