Beautiful walk. Some of the creek crossings were a bit slippery, resulting in one involuntary swim, but that wasn't too much of an issue. If I were walking with kids I'd consider doing it counter-clockwise as you get the climb out of the way in the first couple of ks and it's all downhill from there, but it is a bit of a relentless climb at first. I think it's probably nicer clockwise as you are looking up the creek constantly. The climb to the top is a bit more broken up, but probably is steeper in spots. Though it's cooler in the rainforest than on the track. I'll do this one again. |

Road up to the Cleared Ridge is in good nick at the moment. Walk was great. Lots of water at the moment. Well worth it. |
