Itinerary description
A bit of exercise but not as strenuous as climbing Majura, with some less-travelled trail sections. It overlaps with the Twin Peaks walk; you might want to mix and match from the two.
Note the point soon after entering the reserve where I went right but you should go left for the best route.
After the 'old bridge', keep an eye out for Cunningham's Skinks in rock formations beside the road. The Sheep Camp is so named because graziers brought sheep together there; the Friends of Mt. Majura parkcare group has done a lot of work on undoing some of the damage.
