Springwood Conservation Park (Gorge Discovery Track, Spur Track, Deloraine Track and Wheelchair Track)

This walk has the stairs of death on the Gorge Discovery Track. We covered all the tracks, two are circuits and two end on a street, which we back tracked. There is a centre in the park where most tracks cross over. The tracks themselves are beautiful, with great views and man made. The stairs are do-able even for a gumbie like me and the Deloraine and Spur Track also have an good incline. There is a wheelchair track though very long but is beautiful asl well.
