Mark G.
Walk | A bushwalk of any kind short or long60 Best walks | This is one of the NPA's 60 best walks.Photography | A trip that has a strong focus on encouraging people to capture photographs.The Broad Swamp to Birds Rock walking trail is a 17km new track which is part of the 30km Gardens of Stone SCA walking trail, which is due to be finished before the end of this decade. I was planning on doing this section one way but unfortunately the Broad Swamp section with the carpark is closed until just after Easter, whilst new facilities are being established. So instead I'm doing the more spectacular section of this trail starting from Birds Rock and including Hippo rock and the stunning Carne creek lookout and nearby pagodas. Basically we will experience the best section of this track so you won't be disappointed. However, if there is a miracle and the infrastructure is finished by Easter, then the original plan of walking from Broad Swamp to Birds Rock will still stand. But I doubt it!

Walk | A bushwalk of any kind short or long60 Best walks | This is one of the NPA's 60 best walks.Photography | A trip that has a strong focus on encouraging people to capture photographs.A walk with history and lots of pagodas and stunning views! We start our hike along the Tramway trail, passing various old miners dwellings now being overtaken by nature and head west until the trail ends and we then follow the ridge along to Blacks Corner. Sounds deceptively simple but along the way we will encounter more pagodas and slots than you can imagine as well as some almost parkland sections of grassy lomandra until we reach our objective, Blacks Corner. A walk for those who want to leave the Easter crowds behind and explore a location rarely visited. rock scrambling and offtrack walking

Walk | A bushwalk of any kind short or long60 Best walks | This is one of the NPA's 60 best walks.Photography | A trip that has a strong focus on encouraging people to capture photographs.Slow pace | A trip where the leader will set an easy pace.(Postponed) What this walk lacks in distance it more than makes up for in terms of variety and pure enjoyment as there is much to see and savour in this not often visited part of Wollemi national park. Along the way you'll encounter some of the best and largest swimming holes you could hope to find, gorgeous waterfalls and cascades and stands of towering trees in a rainforest environment. Add to these features, some extraordinary tafoni enriched sandstone caves, rock wells to play in and a hellva lot more. All in all, an adventurers playground par excellence! rock scrambling and offtrack walking
