A fairly level four wheel drive track, so is quite an easy going walk, but a few hilly bits. It takes you through Eucalyptus forest.
For best parking, park at the top right "corner" of the Daisy Hill Rd parking loop at P6. There is a small toilet at P7 about 100m south from P6 on the same loop.
The track can also be accessed at its top left side from Underwood Road.
