Although the track is rough in parts, most active visitors will find the 20 minute one-way walk to be quite easy. However, the conditions require that sensible walking shoes be worn.

Simpsons Gap
West MacDonnell National Park
A number of scenic gaps pierce the West MacDonnell Ranges, one of which is Simpsons Gap; site of one of the most prominent waterholes in the region. The area is an important spiritual site to the Aranda Aboriginal people, where several dreaming trails and stories cross. At dawn or dusk Simpsons Gap is renowned as a place to see Black-footed Rock-wallabies along the gap's short walking track. Good examples of many of the vegetation communities of the MacDonnell Ranges are found in the Simpsons Gap area, including large stands of Mulga, and the area around the gap is a major stronghold for some of the rare and relic plants of the region.

Undercliffe Falls
New South Wales
Undercliffe Falls is a waterfall located on the Bookookoorara Creek in northeast New South Wales.
Undercliffe Falls is estimated between 140m and 160m high. This estimate is based on analysis of the topographic profile around the waterfall and may not be an accurate figure for the total fall of water seen if viewing the falls.
The nearest populated town of Stanthorpe, with shops, wineries, accommodation etc etc is 23km away, via Amosfield Road. The nearest sealed road to Undercliffe Falls is the Mount Lindesay Highway (7.59km away). The turnoff, to Rivertree Road is located in the small village of Liston. The entrance to Undercliffe Falls is from Rivertree Rd and is signposted. You travel through farmland. Camping & coffee etc is available at Aloomba Lavender on the northern side of Liston. Liston has holiday accommodation and Liston hall (with bar) is often open on Fridays and some public holidays.
Care should be taken near the top of the waterfall, as a fall would be easy.
Mobile phone reception is patchy. Telstra is best so far. A public phone is available in Liston.
Public toilets are also in Liston (cleaned by local volunteers).

Carlo Sand Blow to Poona Lake
Great Sandy National Park
This walk is part of the Cooloola Great Walk. Starting from the Carlo Sand Blow car park at Rainbow Beach, its a short 10 min walk to the Carlo Sand Blow. From there cross the sand blow to the other side and continue along the track. It is well sign posted. At the 5km mark the track parts into 2. Follow the path to Poona lake which is another 5km. This track is a much smaller track, but is well defined. Take a swim and have lunch at the lake and then return via the same way.

Pitta Circuit
Brisbane Forest park D'Aguilar National Park
Lovely walk through a Eucalyptus forest before entering a lovely cool rainforest. The track winds around onto a boardwalk which totally surrounds a strangler fig where the host has totally rotted away. A number of educational signs give some great information for the younger members of the family.

Chermside Hills, Raven St Reserve, and Milne Hill Circuit
South East Queensland
A surprisingly diverse walk in the heart of the 'burbs' with the ability to totally lose oneself from the hectic pace of modern life, the sounds of traffic, the visual pollution of human settlement. On the two times I have done this walk I have come across a mob of wallabies in different sections of the walk.

Robertsons Point Lookout
Greater Sydney
A short walk but a fun time. Catch a ferry to Cremorne Point and grab a bight to eat before climbing the steps and having a play in the kids playground. Then wander along the footpath to the lookout at the end of Cremorne Point, know as Robertsons Point. The view across Sydney Harbour is great. There are also a few picnic tables to enjoy. Beyond this walk, the more adventurous can climb down the steps and ladder to the rock platform below.
