Rats Castle & Hell Hole Circuit
Starting where the 4wd track starts to get particularly dicey as it begins the last drop to the Severn River follow the 4wd track down to the river which you will cross and follow down stream (this will be one of a few river crossings you will need to complete if the water level is high enough). Once you reach the circuit part of the walk this is where you will come across the main features of the walk. Described anti-clockwise you will first head up a steep section to a saddle which has a worthwhile detour to 'Hell Hole Peak' the small knoll that sits above the bend in the river and offers great views to the North and East. Then you descend to The Hell Hole a waterhole in the river and follow the river around to beneath the Rats Castle where you will cross the river and close the loop crossing the river once more before returning the way you came.
