(Waitlisting) Introducing the Tidbinbilla Skyline Northern Section

Completed

Walk

This is an ideal trip for new (and long time, and old) walkers wanting to experience the area. Although long-ish and with a good total climb, most of the distance is on fire trail and well-established footpad routes. There are two very easy scrambles up to Camels Hump and Johns Peak. Awesome views from many vantage points. Visit Camels Hump, Pierce Hill and trig, Johns Peak, Tidbinbilla Peak. Around 16km and 900vm. There is no water on the crest, so that will increase our pack load, depending on the heat of the day. C, P, J, T available for RU⇧4it. photo | View from Pierce Hill down Oakey Creek with Spur 3 on right
