Worn Boot Bash - South Namadgi creeks huts and hills
Sat 26th Nov 2022
Walk
Yes, it’s back folks – the legendary worn boot bash! The criteria was simply: ‘minimum 30kms, with a few hills’. This will be a LONG day so only fit walkers need apply.
We will meet at Lanyon at 5.20am for a 5.30am sharp departure, and then carpool to the southern junction of Boboyan Road and Old Boboyan Road (1.5km north of Brayshaws Homestead) with a view to start walking around 6.30am.
The circuit will commence with Old Boboyan Road, and we will eventually turn left on to Sam’s Creek Firetrail. Highlights include:
- Luton’s Crutching shed
- Soon after, we will leave the track and commence our ascent to Sentry Box Mountain. The vegetation largely comprises of acacias and eucalyptus;
- The vegetation of the descent will be easier the further down we go. We will be following the ACT/NSW border for a while;
- Eventually we will meet up with the Grassy Creek Firetrail and make our way towards Waterhole Hut (aka Waterlogged Hut);
- After Waterhole Hut we will cross the creek and walk back along the footpad (Settler’s Track). A beautifully serene walk with a few a little rises until we reach Brayshaw’s Homestead;
- After Brayshaws Homestead, it is an easy stroll along Boboyan Road back to the cars along Boboyan Road.
This walk has it all; firetrail, scrub, extensive rock slabs, foot pad, great views. And if the rain continues - wet feet!
Bring all the normal stuff eg water, food, wet weather gear, sturdy shoes or boots, hat, sunscreen, gaiters, gloves, headtorch (just in case…). And a sense of fun.
Must show a clean pair of heels!
A walk or similar activity with a duration of a day or part day. No overnight gear required.
