  • ADVENTUROUS WALK

    5.5km, 550m elevation gain, 2.5 hrs walking, hotel pick-up, lunch included. Images

    The Adventurous walk is by no means 'difficult' but it will certainly get your heart rate up! Be prepared for some very rewarding views throughout the walk.

    Starting at the Springs, we do it easy across to Sphinx Rock - a magnificent treetop lookout. From here we head up the old Sawmill Track to the base of the Organ Pipes, crossing boulder fields and mountain streams on the way.

    We cut back across the mountain and then take the Zig Zag Track steeply up beside the cliffs. A short steep pinch sees us at the summit!
