You’ll find the Lindsay Rock Tops car park about 20km along on the left, before you start up towards Mt Dowe.

Other References/Comments:

With so many bushwalking options here and a length drive in, why not take advantage of the excellent camping facilities at Bark Hut or Dawsons Spring.

Comments

Not very inspiring and if we had know that there was no views from the top and only a communications tower, we would not have walk up.
