Route/Trail notes

 Go down the Kondilla Falls track to Skene Creek where it is crossed by a Bridge. Start rock hopping down the creek. Ignore any funny looks from other day walkers! Rock hop down finding the occasional foot pad till you reach a fence on the left climb through the fence and follow a footpad to a large rock where Obi Obi Creek joins Skene or vice versa. Keep going downhill on Obi Pbi Creek, there is some scrubby parts. until you reach the Gorge be careful not to follow a smaller tributary creek off Obi Obi, it is on the left.  You will come to the Gorge and this is where you start swimming. I took a surf mat to float htrough but forgot a large plastic bag for my daypack! The gorge is about 250m long. Keep following the Crek till you reach a swiming hole and then a bend in the Creek, The track to the Baroon Pocket Dam carpark is found here.

A long walk but easy to cool off in during summer. Would not do this after rain!
