Activities
Bushwalking
We have a 5 km network of walking tracks, something for everyone. The one minute, wheelchair accessible lookout is a great lunch spot where you can see the giant Mountain Ash or do some bird watching. Also a great spot to get married or renew your vows! The 20 minute loop allows you to hug a giant Eucalyptus Regnans tree. 40 minutes takes you through a giant burnt out Mountain Ash to a restfall waterfall with a seat to contemplate life. For the more adventurous, climb to the sub alpine plateau to see the heathland wild flowers and the 360 degree view, or walk to the top of Mount Mysery, a 4 hour mountain hike.

A series of 32 informative panels are scattered along the various walks. These panels will give you a unique perspective of aboriginal and colonial history, culture and geological processes.
