This half-day Grade 3 walk is in the Border Ranges National Park on Bundjalung Country. It starts beneath towering eucalypts on the western side of the Wollumbin (Mount Warning) Caldera, and heads west, gently down through magical World-Heritage listed Gondawana Rainforest with its 2000 year old Antarctic Beech trees. At an elevation of approx 1,135 metres, it can be a good few degrees colder up there so I would suggest packing a jumper/coat.
At the base of the walk there is a lookout with a vista over Collins Creek and, weather permitting, all the way to Mount Lindesay and Mount Barney. There we will stop to rest, perhaps have something to eat, and enjoy the view.
The walk back up to the picnic area is a little steeper, with some views and flora and fauna to enjoy on the way. For those who would like to, I will suggest we take the walk down at a 3/4 pace in quiet, connecting with the land, reutrning to chatting as we approach the lookout and for our walk back up. The traditional billy will be boiled back at the picnic area for those who enjoy a cup of tea.
