Itinerary description

Within Mt Barney National Park you start by following the hiking trail behind the information board (behind & right).
Approximately 5+ km's of Firetrail till you reach a short 100mtrs track down to Cronan Creek Falls (great swimming hole).

Along the firetrail you will get great views of majestic Mt Barney (to your right) and Mt Ernest and Mt Lindsay to your left.

Expect to get your feet wet, or be prepared to be constantly removing your shoes as there a many Creek crossings.
You can rock hop many crossings (depending on your skill and recent rainfall).

Optional: Can be bypassed but well worth a quick side trip up to the Yellow Pinch Lookout.
