Great hike and scramble. Done with no shoes as felt better grip without. No dramas completing it with our 10 yr old and 5 yr old. Saw some other kids that weren't as adventurous though, so maybe not for all. | ||||

Notes for families. Walk from the lower small carpark to the first gorge is about 1hr15. We did it with an 8 yr old and a 3 yr old. 3 yr old can go the whole way to the first gorge under their own steam. If you get to the first gorge and the team is feeling a bit iffy, you can leave via a faint steep path on the left (facing upstream) which is nearby (but not) the little tributary. A steep 10 min walk up to the road. If there has been a lot of rain or you have little people under say 5yrs, you can go to the second gorge but be prepared to then hike back to the first gorge before you can get out. There are swimming sections to get from the first to the second gorge. Take some small towels for the little people. |
