Itinerary description

We parked at the "Old scout camp" area on Middle Gully road, plenty of off road parking.

We crossed over the rail line and headed to the right along a fire trail, our aim was to find as many tunnels under the rail line as we could, we found 4, and used the first 3 to criss cross under the rail line while heading N/W, we tried to use trails along the side of the rail line as much as possible. At the 4th tunnel we decided to head back, where there were many choices of bush tracks to take.

An entertaining walk for sure.

A special shout out to Shazza P for telling us about the tunnels
