Mt. Yoro, located near the Mie prefecture border has a beautiful waterfall at the base of the mountain and stunning views over the Gifu farmlands. The hike is not particularly intensive or technical. It's good stuff.

Princess Marina Track to Kellys Falls
The hike along Princess Marina Track to Kellys Falls isn’t a long one, but it’s a tough one, with some serious guts needed to get up and down the rope ladder (which was broken last time we checked). But it’s all totally worth it, with a stunning swimming hole calling your name at the bottom.

Legend has it, Banjo Patterson proposed to his sweetheart Alice Walker. Over the sound of the pounding waterfall, Banjo was relieved to hear, or at least lip-read, an unmistakable ‘yes’!

Azuchi Castle 安土城 (Shiga Prefecture)
Azuchi Castle was one of the most important castles in Japanese history. It has since been destroyed and all that is left are some walls. But the hike around the mountain and the attached museum and shrine are more than worth visiting. As you hike up and around the mountain, you can learn about Oda Nobunaga, one of the greatest warlords in all of Japanese history.

Benarkin to Linville- Part of BVRT
The Benarkin to Linville section is 18km, downhill. The only inclines are crossings of Blackbutt Creek. Initially the walk is through gum forest, with stands of hoop pine and stands of silky oak. Then it opens up and runs through farm land for the last 4 or 5 km. There are plenty of birds, notably many brown doves, and flocks of quail. There is a bellbird colony near 130 kilometric mark. Blackbutt is a pretty creek if running. There is a bit of rainforest on the banks. Historical railway spots and information are signed and very interesting. Surface is good - no slippery bits. There are three shelters along the way. MacNamara's Camp. about half way, has a toilet and water tank. Take your own water. And maybe insect repellent.

Peak and Creek Trails
Today we drove the Mt Norman day use area on mt Norman road and set off on the Peak trail. A non strenuous walk with a lovely view of Mt Norman. Until we got to the end of Peak trail where there is a junction to join creek trail. We chose to take the left fork after a few hundred meters we came to a pretty rock clearing with lovely water path ways across it. It has been raining a fair bit and was drizzling at the time. Finding the exit from this rocky outcrop was really hard there were no visible markers and after much hunting we found a trodden path and followed it. After about 1 km we found ourselves at underground creek which we had been to the day before so thankfully knew where we were, as underground creek has no signage at it. These two paths are not even meant to meet up, clearly the well trodden path we had taken is one many others have found themselves confused by and ended up at. We carried on to the dr Roberts day use area and trekked back along Pyramids road and back onto mt Norman road to the northern day use area and set ourselves back on course of the creek track. To be honest after the lovely view of mt Norman there’s isn’t really much else going for the hike. It’s quite a monotonous hike, but if you want to mountain bike it it would be an awesome challenge. The great thing for us was we didn’t see anyone else at all.

Despite being labelled as ruins of a fort, there is literally nothing remaining. It is just a hill with a minor view of the town of Akechi. Don't expect too much. The hike is also a bit confusing.
