This walk is a great way to go to Lawson Lookout, especially if you are coming from Fairy Dell Reserve picnic area. With Springwood just out of ear shot, the walk meanders down the Magdala Gully, then leads up to Lawson Lookout for a great view across the valley.

Comments

Our first bushwalk together. Recent backburn made it difficult to find tracks - luckily we knew the area (from the roadside).
Saw a lyrebird scratching thru the undergrowth.

The track is a bit overgrown and there is not much to see at the lookout. Lots of birds though.
