An epic walk! Hiked North and had wet feet from day one walking through the inundated heathlands to the beach. Amazing views of the lake from the first campsite and stunning sunset! We even saw whales breaching on day 2 whilst walking along the hind dunes.

I’ll do this again but try North to South :) and probably over 3 days.

I have done this several times over the last 12 months. I really enjoy seeing the changing seasons in the vegetation, and the drastic changes in environments.

Mt Walsh Tassels Track (Mount Walsh National Park)

Amazing walk! The rock scramble up to the top was quite challenging with full overnight packs on. We lunched at the summit and then headed to the saddle between the first and second Pinnacle. Down from Mt Walsh the track takes a lot of mental effort ensuring foot placement is secure as the rocks are very loose. We dumped our bags and went around the second Pinnacle looking for the elusive cave, which alas we didnt find. Camped overnight and the stars were absolutely amazing. Sunrise was pretty awesome too. In the morning we headed over the last three Pinnacles it was hard going ... wish I had taken my climbing gloves as still lots of scrambling, had to lower our bags in one spot as it was too tricky to go down with our packs. The views from the top of each pinnacle was priceless. Headed down the ridge and caught up to the path near the end.

Lots and lots and lots of leeches, and it rained pretty much the whole way. But it was an amazing family bonding experience. Loved it!
