The Mullum Mullum Creek Trail is a shared use path for cyclists and pedestrians, which follows Mullum Mullum Creek in the outer eastern suburbs in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia.

The path is split into two sections, which will be linked to form one continuous trail from Templestowe to Croydon. Until this link is constructed, the section of the path between the end of the Yarra River Trail in Templestowe and Park Road in Donvale is the lower section, while the section between the end of the Heads Road in Donvale and Highland Avenue in Croydon is the upper section. The missing central section between Park Road and Heads Road in Donvale is set to open in 2017, with a detail planning study having been completed.

The upper section starts in the east at the end of Highland Ave. The path heads in a south westerly direction, with at-level road crossing at Kalinda Road, Oban Road, and Oliver Street. The trail then heads under the tunnel, where there is an immediate junction. Trail users can turn left, heading east toward the Belgrave Rail Trail, which initially runs on-road along Larissa Avenue and via Ringwood Lake. The Mullum Mullum Creek Trail takes an immediate right turn west towards Eastland Shopping Centre. A road crossing at Warrandyte Road and a tunnel under Ringwood Street sends you to the end of the EastLink Trail. Continuing under the EastLink onramps leads you under Deep Creek Road and into Yarran Dheran. The path continues north west past sensitive flora and fauna by the concrete path mixed with a series of timber bridges and boardwalks.

An at-level crossing with the junction of Quarry Road and Becketts Road is confronted. Immediately after the road crossing, the trail splits into two. Straight ahead and to the north west is the start of the Koonung Creek Trail. Turning right and northwards, the upper section of the Mullum Mullum Creek continues to its current end point (March 2017) at Heads Road.
