Description |
Getting to this walk is almost half the challenge, because it's way up the notorious Skippers Valley, up a winding and narrow and rough road. The walk then involves several stream crossings on a demanding and sometimes steep tramping track. But if you can get to the mineworks, it's well worth it for the history to discover. And for those who need a further challenge, the Dynamo Track branch offers another hour and half of e creek crossings and scrambles - and a hut at the end. |
