Then, head in a northerly direction passing London Bridge Arch and follow alongside Burr a Creek to reach the Dhurrawarri Bunya trail. With a climb up to the rid ge, the Dhurrawarri Bunya trail will take us out the headland where the Queanbeyan River and Burra Creek meet. We retrace our steps with a short decent off trail to cut across the Queanbeyan River Trail. From here, w e explore off track the undulating dry woodlands of Googong Foreshore Re serve contouring several spurs and cross shallow gullies to visit scenic vantage points above the Queanbeyan River. We also descend off track do wn to the river twice; some parts of the descent are steep – very stee p, and there are pockets of thicker bush we need to navigate through. Cl imbs back out are also steep – very steep, and more strenuous in parts . We visit a final knoll before connecting with the fire trail down to G elegnite Crossing, which is our turn around point. We loop back along th e fire trail of the Queanbeyan River walk, before briefly dipping our to es into Burra Creek Nature Reserve. We re-enter Googong Foreshore reserv e and make our way back along trail to reach our starting point. This wa lk is a mixture of on track (wide fire trails, and formed bush tracks) a nd a significant amount off track (mostly open dry woodlands and thicker pockets of bush close to the river, open grasses, undulating landscape with steep to very steep sections, surfaces that may be slippery or unst able underfoot, sandy and rocky sections along the river). This walk is partly exploratory and there will be deliberate periods of quiet attenti ve walking to be fully present in nature.
