Can’t do Wednesday Walks? Join me in scoping the 2nd E-M WW coming up in a week or two.
Gooroo NR like you may not have seen it before. From Wildbark, we’ll head south then up onto Sammy’s Hill from the SW. Descending to the SE, we’ll drop into Sullivans Creek and follow it down through the canyon for around 1.5km. Our next objective is Burnt Stump Hill for some tree hugging. The next leg is the usual route to the north over some of the eastern hills – Gecko Hills and Old Joe Hill. We re-enter the protected area through the Buru (Kangaroo) gate and head to a pleasant knoll to the N of Sammy’s Hill. From there, it’s SW to join the Earth to Sky Track and back to Wildbark for a coffee. Slow walking. Around 12km and 450vm. We’ll try for gates, but there may be a couple of fences to cross. Gaiters essential.
