Goomoolahra Falls Lookout Track (Springbrook National Park) |
17 Dec, 2020 |
Very Easy |
600m return 10 mins |
|
Water galore. Not the weather to sit down for a picnic. | ||||
Cape Tourville Circuit (Freycinet National Park) |
13 Dec, 2020 |
Very Easy |
600m return 20 mins |
|
Vast views and a bit of not so well known history. | ||||
Loontitetermairrelehoiner Track (East Coast) |
13 Dec, 2020 |
Easy |
2.3km return 45 mins |
|
The name of the track is longer than the walk itself. Good reason to stop on your way along the east coast. | ||||
Mt Wellington - Summit Lookouts (Wellington Park) |
13 Dec, 2020 |
Very Easy |
400m return 30 mins |
|
Driving up is more challenging than the “walk” itself. The serious hiker can park the car below the summit and walk the rest. | ||||
Wineglass Bay/Hazards Beach Circuit (Freycinet National Park) |
12 Dec, 2020 |
Medium |
11.5km return 4 hrs |
|
Hazards Beach was the highlight for me on this walk. All to myself, near perfect colours of the sand/ water, lots of interesting shells all over the beach. Take your time while doing this section! | ||||
Mount Amos (Freycinet National Park) |
12 Dec, 2020 |
Hard |
4km return 3 hrs |
|
Unmatched views in all directions. Make sure to have time to sit on the top for a while. Sadly, a few tourists walk up with phone in hand only. Not very helpful if the weather changes or it is as hot/ dry as today. Silly accidents may cause authorities to close the walk. | ||||
The Gardens - Bay of Fires (East Coast) |
11 Dec, 2020 |
Easy |
1km return 20 mins |
|
One of the many picturesque places along the Bay of Fires. The end of the sealed road. | ||||
Dove Canyon (Cradle Mountain-Lake St Clair National Park) |
10 Dec, 2020 |
Medium |
6.3km return 2.5 hrs |
|
Raised boardwalks, water falls, river gorge and rock scrambling- this track has a bit of everything. I enjoyed especially the final stretch through the button grass with the rising sun warming my back. | ||||
Enchanted Walk (Cradle Mountain-Lake St Clair National Park) |
9 Dec, 2020 |
Very Easy |
1.1km one-way 30 mins |
|
Overrated in my opinion, perhaps at times crowded as well, but certainly one of the easiest to access. I did it as an add-on. | ||||
King Billy Track (Reynolds Falls Nature Recreation Area) |
9 Dec, 2020 |
Easy |
2km return 40 mins |
|
After a long day on the alpine tracks, I was challenged by the many steps of the well maintained boardwalk sections. Even a bit eerie at late arvo. | ||||
Marions Lookout (Cradle Mountain-Lake St Clair National Park) |
9 Dec, 2020 |
Hard |
7.5km return 3 hrs |
|
Went up from Ronny Creek in rain, wind and clouds. Weather cleared up during the day. I was prepared and enjoyed every minute. | ||||
Face Track (Cradle Mountain-Lake St Clair National Park) |
9 Dec, 2020 |
Medium |
2km one-way 1 hr |
|
Good alternative if weather on top of Cradle Mt is too wild. Splendid views up and down. | ||||
Three Falls Trail (Mount Field National Park) |
7 Dec, 2020 |
Medium |
6.5km return 2.25 hrs |

Truly spectacular walk, more like a slow stroll to take in all the beauty. | ||||
Franklin River Nature Trail (Franklin-Gordon Wild Rivers National Park) |
7 Dec, 2020 |
Easy |

The rainy weather added the right ambience. Everything is so clean and unspoiled. | ||||

7 Dec, 2020 |
Easy |
1.4km return 30 mins |

Get out of the car. Take the brolly. Enjoy the walk and the falls. BTW-clean toilets in the middle of nowhere. | ||||
Warrie Circuit (Springbrook National Park) |
27 Nov, 2020 |
Hard |
17km return 5 hrs |

This time I have chosen the arvo option. No shortage of padymelons on the way up after the halfway break. | ||||
Spotted Gum Trail (Daisy Hill Conservation Park) |
26 Nov, 2020 |
Easy |
4km return 1 hr |
|
Late arvo sun gives a nice light to the top of gumtrees. Weekday offers reduced traffic/ dust. | ||||

Mount Yaccaaba - Yaccaaba Head (New South Wales) |
15 Nov, 2020 |

The beach walk from car park to the headland itself is one of a kind. Subtropical Paradise without palms. | ||||

Well maintained trail. New signage. Splendid views toward the east (Myall Lakes NP) and west (Bulahdelah). |
