Anson Bay (Norfolk Island) |

Well if there is a track from the top of the cliff face down to the beach, you just have to give it a try. This was a great little walk to the secluded beach with its crashing waves. Not recommended for swimming, due to rips. | ||||

Imbil Brooloo Rail Trail (Sunshine Coast) |

What a great little walk for all the family (well the kids cycled), with its abundance of bird life. There are no facilities at either end of the trail, so a walk back into Imbil along the rail line and a well deserved drink at the Railway Hotel was on the cards. | ||||

OMG, never imagined anyone wound put this up as a walk on Aussie Bushwalking. A training ground for bushwalking yes; three years ago we trained on it before taking on Bartle-Frere Western Approach. Now as just part of keeping fit, with 3/4 sets of four: walk down walk up, run down walk up, walk down run up, run down run up. You leave a drinks bottle at the top and place a pebble down for each lap. It is great fun in the dark, as not only do you have to negotiate the steps, but also the cane toads that jump across! | ||||

Although on our doorstep, we had not visited the sanctuary till last year, but this year we have been in twice to have a good look around and map the walks. We enjoyed it immensely and the variety of trees is amazing. | ||||

Deer Reserve SF - T1 (South East Queensland) |
2 Jul, 2019 |

3.6km return 90 mins |

We had been promising ourselves for some time to investigate the walks in Deer Reserve when camping at Somerset Lake, so this time around we did the short loop walk, we have called T1. We were lucky that there had been logging along the trail, which made it easier to follow, but we still managed to go wrong at one point, even with the map. | ||||

Found this pleasant park reserve walk quite by accident, while staying at Toowoomba Motor Village, where I was able to walk out onto it. | ||||

I would like to say that I completed this walk, but unfortunately not. After recent storms and flooding, it was washed away, leaving no means to cross the creek. Council were working on its restoration. | ||||

The opportunity to get up high and have a look west at the mining area and its smelters. | ||||
The Pebbles (Northern Territory) |

After the marvels of The Marbles, this was a pretty uninspiring place, that you can't get very excited about. The drive in is very badly corrugated road, that if your vehicle is precious, don't even try it. Personally, leave this one off your bucket list! | ||||

What a great way to spend a morning having camped at the Marbles Hotel the night before. Visiting the world renowned Devil's Marbles, we thought there was just one walk around the stones. Turns out there were four, so we tracked them all, but did roll Yakkula Walk and the Nurrku Loop together. |
