Smokers Flat Loop & Square Rock Lookout
Wed 08th Feb 2023
From the Square Rock carpark (on Corin Road) we set off on the Smokers Flat Loop trail in a clockwise direction. The trail is relatively steep until the Smokers Management trail turn-off. Somewhere around this point we will select a spot to have morning tea. We then continue on to the junction with the Square Rock trail, we then turn left and continue on to Square Rock for lunch.
After Square Rock we return to the cars via the Square Rock trail, with a brief diversion (1km return) to the Orroral Valley Lookout.
Note that the Smokers Flat Loop trail is overgrown in places, while some sections of the Square Rock trail are extremely muddy.

Terrain information
Steep at times, muddy at times. All on track. A hiking pole would be useful for the muddy sections. Bring warm clothing and wet weather gear - the mountains always surprise. Also, I had a close encounter with a snake last week during my recce, so long trousers and/or gaiters are highly recommended.
