E/M Wednesday Walk - Woods Reserve, Devils Gap, Gibraltar Peak, and Mushroom Rock

Wed 10th Jul 2024

Completed

Walk

Bookings not required for Wednesday walks
This is a mostly easy walk on tracks and fire trails both within and eat of Tidbinbilla Nature Reserve. We will leave a car on the left side of the Corin Rd.1.5km from its intersection with the Tidbinbilla Rd and proceed to the Woods Reserve Camping Ground (loo).
The walk takes a little used track (with the occasional washout to navigate) to the well-maintained Devils Gap track which we follow in a clockwise direction back to the Gibraltar South fire trail then head northwards and beyond to Gibraltar Peak (stunning views) for lunch and exploration time. After our break we return to and follow the Gibraltar North fire trail to visit and explore Mushroom Rock and then on to the Corin Rd to wait while the drivers retrieve the cars. The walk is 95% on well formed tracks with no bush bashing. Poles would be useful where steep/gravelly and warm weather gear and protection is essential
