Rob Roy Range Nature Reserve

This walk is partly exploratory in nature. Much of the walk will be off-trail, criss-crossing the undulating landscape exploring various aspects (gullies, spurs, creek lines, knolls, grassy woodlands etc…) of the Northern section of the Rob Roy Nature Reserve. Starting in the north, the plan is to head along foot pads and off trail south west until we join the fire trail leading to Big Monks. From Big Monks we head off trail though woodland forests to the north east before veering north to our starting point. The walk will have some steep sections and rocky/grassy slopes that may be slippery and/or unstable under foot with varying thickness of vegetation from open grasslands to moderate-thick scrub. Walking pole(s) might be useful at times and gaiters and/or long pants a must to protect legs.
