Name	Date	Difficulty	Distance/Duration
Cooby Dam Lakeside Walk (Darling Downs South West)	18 Jul, 2021	Medium	4.42km one-way 90 mins
We did this walk from Loveday Cove and back. It was 10km and 2hr 11min from the main car park. The dam is very low at the moment - we remember visiting when the water was lapping over the spillway!
Crows Nest Falls Circuit (Crows Nest National Park)	20 Jun, 2021	Medium	4.5km return 2 hrs
The area is still fairly dry but there was water running in the creek. Lots of stairs! We walked in via the creek path with the side tracks to water holes, and came back from Koonin lookout directly to the carpark with a distance of 4.8km.
Applegum Walk and Hartmanns Park Circuit (South East Queensland)	20 Jun, 2021	Medium	3.74km return 1 hr
There have been some extra tracks added to the Hartmanns Park area.
The Nut (Tasmania)	14 Jun, 2021	Easy	2.6km return 1 hr
The website said the chairlift would be closed for winter, but it was running when we got there so we took it to the top, did the walk around the circuit and walked back down. It is pretty steep!
Marions Lookout (Cradle Mountain-Lake St Clair National Park)	13 Jun, 2021	Hard	7.5km return 3 hrs
We did this hike from Dove Lake via Lake Lilla, Wombat Pool and Crater Lake. We decided to continue on to the Kitchen Hut as the weather was fine, but the cloud came over quickly and we had lunch there and turned back. There were some patches of ice/snow left around from the last fall a few days ago. We returned to the Ronny creek car park via Ronny Creek and saw heaps of wombats on the grassy field near the bus pickup area. Total walk was 12.3km.
Dove Lake Circuit (Cradle Mountain-Lake St Clair National Park)	12 Jun, 2021	Easy	5.7km return 2 hrs
We did this walk on our first day at Cradle Mountain along with a couple of the shorter walks, and saved the longer walks for the next day.
Enchanted Walk (Cradle Mountain-Lake St Clair National Park)	12 Jun, 2021	Very Easy	1.1km one-way 30 mins
This is a beautifully green forested area that would be beautiful with snow! We saw lots of evidence of wombats - scat and burrows but didn't see any that day.
Rainforest Walk (Cradle Mountain-Lake St Clair National Park)	12 Jun, 2021	Very Easy	500m return 10 mins
This short walk has a lookout over Pencil Pine Falls and a variety of forest.
Franklin River Nature Trail (Franklin-Gordon Wild Rivers National Park)	10 Jun, 2021	Easy	1km return 20 mins
An easy walk along the Franklin river.
Nelson Falls (Franklin-Gordon Wild Rivers National Park)	10 Jun, 2021	Easy	1.4km return 30 mins
This is a beautiful waterfall - just really nice! Access is very easy via a boardwalk.
Horsetail Falls (West Coast Tasmania)	10 Jun, 2021	Easy	800m return 20 mins
I found the rock layering alongside the walkway really interesting too. The falls would definitely be better after some rain.
Three Falls Trail (Mount Field National Park)	9 Jun, 2021	Medium	6.5km return 2.25 hrs
The moss, lichen and fungi in this area was amazing - it's all so green! Our GPS shows this walk as being 8.35km for 2.5hrs. Just beautiful.
Mount Amos (Freycinet National Park)	8 Jun, 2021	Hard	4km return 3 hrs
My husband did the Mt Amos climb, but I only did the Wineglass bay Lookout walk and then met him on the Mt Amos climb where the granite part started (my boots are not good on slippery surfaces). He felt that while it was challenging there was less scrabbling than he had anticipated. The view was amazing though!
Tahune Airwalk (Tasmania)	6 Jun, 2021	Easy	3km return 2 hrs
There is evidence of recovery after the bush-fires, but I'm guessing the area looks very different from what it did before hand! The suspension bridge across the Huon River has been replaced and the full circuit took 1.5hr for 5.5km (including photo stops).
Sandstone Overhang - 'The Caves' (Ravensbourne National Park)	23 May, 2021	Medium	4.8km return 2 hrs
A fairly easy walk to the 'caves'. It was a nice spot to sit for morning tea.
Buaraba Creek Track (Ravensbourne National Park)	23 May, 2021	Hard	6.2km return 2 hrs
We did this walk in conjunction with the other walks in the park. Lots of birds to spot.
Rainforest Circuit (Ravensbourne National Park)	23 May, 2021	Medium	1.7km return 40 mins
There are some gorgeous blue gums in this area. It makes you wonder what the rest of the country would have looked like if it hadn't been logged.
Cedar Block Circuit (Ravensbourne National Park)	23 May, 2021	Medium	500m return 20 mins
The track is being refurbished and will be very easy when it's completed.
Palm Creek Circuit (Ravensbourne National Park)	23 May, 2021	Medium	3.6km return 75 mins
Done in conjunction with other walks in the area.
Muntapa Railway Tunnel (Toowoomba)	16 May, 2021	Medium	1km return 30 mins
There are two walks, one to either end of the tunnel. One goes down a set of metal stairs and then back up, and the other is an easy path. There is a colony of bent wing bats inside the tunnel so it is closed off from both ends so they aren't disturbed.
