Description |
This extensive network of tracks provides some good walks, through mixed forest, with lots of mining relics to explore. The loop walk on Murrays Creek track is a must, but there are also several side tracks that give you access to other valleys. As an alternative, take the Lankey's Creek walk about 1km east of Blacks Point, and after climbing the 300 steps, explore the Energetic and Bolitho Brothers mines. |
Connecting tracks |
Includes Murrays Creek, Golden Fleece, Konini and Terrace walks. Links to Lankey's Creek. |
