Thanks heaps! I’m going to give it a go!!
Hi. Could you tell me what section the graves are in? Thanks.
Great track Trail Hiking Australia. Have done this twice, and would still do it again in a year! It’s about 32km though
Hiked this circuit yesterday (20 August 2016). Was a log day hike with plenty of short steep sections to get the muscled pumping. The distance was closer to 28km so would make a great overnight hike.
Is there more tracks there but not as long
Beautiful area! I attempted this with a small group this weekend. I would caution anyone heading into the area that there are many, many large trees that have fallen over the tracks. It will take much longer than expected and in windy weather possibly more can fall.
I would love to return once it is safe to do so and try again.
Hi, I did this hike yesterday. Lovely cool, sunny day. Had a great time. Was a bit more of a bush trek than I was expecting. I would do it again but maybe skip the graveyard bit as the graves have been vandalised and was sad to see. There are also a lot of private properties around that area.
