Kangaroo Island Widlerness Trail - Sanderson Section - Day 3
The trail initially heads inland, through taller shady tea trees, before heading out to Remarkable Rocks. The granite boulders appear as seemingly artistic sculptures scattered across a larger granite dome. Returning to the main trail as it heads east, remember to look back to see Remarkable Rocks from any angle no-one else sees it from, as it disappear from view on the horizon. Entering the large Sanderson Bay, you will walk along the cliffs before heading inland, into the shade and away from the winds. Nearing the campsite, there is a short sidetrip down to Sanderson Bay, which if you can play it safe makes a rewarding swim.

Kinbombi Falls
Located next to a camping area with picnic and toilet facilities, the Kinbombi Falls walks are a network of 3 short tracks that descend into a deep gully containing a seasonally flowing creek/waterfall. The combined walks could be done in under an hour, but it is worth setting aside more time to enjoy and explore the gully.
Officially a Grade 5 track (many steep stairs + Tracks 1/3 both have an unstable, unpaved section towards the bottom of the gully), the Kinbombi walks are suitable for people with a moderate-high level of fitness. Ankle-supporting footwear is recommended if you plan to go beyond the cement stairs and explore the gully.
