Saturday morning doing five peaks in the Goorooyarroo Park
Sat 18th Jan 2025
Part-day walk
Climbing 5 of the peaks in the south eastern side of the Goorooyarroo Nature Reserve, we will start on a vehicular trackfire trail before heading off track off for our first two peaks, mainly open grassy woodlands, then follow the ACT/NSW border off track to peak number three where we will probably have morning tea. The rest of the walk in on track, being either foot pad to peak number four and a combination of fire trail and vehicular track to peak number five. Some great views of Canberra and into NSW, wild life may include kangaroos and black cockatoos.
This walk involves about a third off trail walking, with some steep sections, possibly slippery and unstable underfoot. There will one gully to cross that will require a bit of a scramble.
