Itinerary description

Ample off road parking, no amenities.
The beginning and end of the hike is quite easy, but the in between was difficult in parts with some very steep inclines/declines, these were made worse by the steady rain, we even did a bit of bush bashing to avoid a flooded creek.
The trails ranged from narrow bush tracks to fire access tracks, so this walk had everything.
This is a great area to explore at this time of the year with the wattle in full bloom amongst the grass trees.
Overall a moderate walk
