Now, that was fun. We started off a little later than we would have liked and made pretty quick progress over the first 5 or so kms. When we got to the Albert River Circuit turnoff, the track went from wet to downright boggy in places. After a few kms, most of us gave up avoiding the mud and squelched on through. Some people (well, nearly all of us) were particularly concerned about leeches. Lyn removed 30 from her trouser legs at one point. The Antarctic beeches along the east west section of the track are amazing. The site of their roots long since exposed, forming gothic shapes, covered in moss, surrounded by mist. I was sure Little Red Riding Hood or the Headless Hunt would emerge from around the next corner. |

How lucky can you be. The 21.4 km walk from O'Reillys to Binna Burra is not an arduous one, but is still very satisfying to complete. Great views of the Caldera, Mt Warning, the Tweed Ranges and the Numinbah Valley. While it was a little cold (it is winter still,) the sun was out and the threatened rain stayed away. We got back to Binna Burra at about 4 to tuck into tea, scones and coffee overlooking the Coomera Valley. |
