A great walk.Boris Zoubakin on 15 Jul, 2010
From the carpark the walk doesn't seem all that bad until you round the first corner approx 50m in then the walk becomes incredibly steep. At this point have a little rest a mouthful of water and just tackle it.When you get to the top there is a little green walking track marker post turn left here. Don't follow the track straight ahead. Around 500-700m there is a slight track leading to the right where an old tree has fallen down. It is a good little lookout.
When back on track keep following track to the left. The numerous track shooting off to the right go down to JC Slaughter Falls area.
Soon you reach a second high point and then the track starts to drop steeply following this down will take you back to the park approx 100m from the carpark its a short walk back to the carpark.
