Tower still closed. Combined the return walk with the Botanical Garden. Black Mountain Gate opens 9.30am.

Great walk up with fantastic views. Did the upper circuit & returned via National Trail Fire trails.

Walked this from the CBD so, a total of 10km. A great walk but very very dry! Also went up the Telstra Tower for brilliant views ($7.50 per adult).
