Starting from Wildbark Visitor Centre, we head on good track to the Mulligan's Wetlands, then onto the Woolshed. From here we head across country to the ACT/NSW borderlands to pick up a track to Gooroo Hill and across undulating and steepish country to Old Joe Hill, for good views. This will be our furthest and highest point of the walk. We will head back off track though some light woodland/and grassland to Sammy's Hill. There'll be a fire trail bash from Sammy's back down the hill towards the Visitor Centre, with a side trip to the ruins of Inglewood Homestead. From here a shortish walk back to the cars. It will be warm so please dress for the conditions and bring plenty of water, hats and sunscreen. There will be some off track walking through open woodland so gaiters and/or long pants would be appropriate. Grading: BBC 8. Distance: 16 km (approx). Climb: 350 metres (approx.)
