27 Dec, 2018 |
Medium |
13.5km return 7 hrs |

After doing the Upper Section a year ago, took one of the kids on the Lower Section. Great fun, with a few tricky sections that required a bit of time. Learnt my lesson from last time and brought a li-lo and a more robust dry-bag to keep everything dry! | ||||
Mt Jerusalem, Walls of Jerusalem (Tasmania) |
23 Sep, 2018 |
Hard |
22km return 8 hrs |

Did couple of the side-peaks, but not Mt Jerusalem as the weather was poor. Deep snow on Solomons Throne and snow oover most if the track between the Solomons Throne/Temple side-trails and Dixons Kingdom Hut. https://hikingtheworld.blog/2018/09/23/walls-of-jerusalem-hike-to-dixons-hut/ |

Walked past here many times doing the Bundeena to Otford Coastal Walk... finally managed to make the trip to Figure 8 Pool. Smaller than I expected but beautiful. Avoid weekends and public holidays, as it can get VERY busy! https://hikingtheworld.blog/2017/12/13/figure-eight-pools-royal-np/ |

Bouddi Coastal Walk (New South Wales) |
9 Nov, 2017 |
Medium |
8km one-way 3.5 hrs |

One of the best walks around Sydney... spectacular views of the coast and great swimming beaches. There are some variations you can do to avoid "back tracking" if you are doing this as a return walk. https://hikingtheworld.blog/2017/11/09/bouddi-coastal-walk/ |
