Description |
The Snout, which protrudes nortthwards from Picton, may not be beautifully named, but offers some really good walks. For a long walk, taking in most of the best views, climb threough the bush to the ridgeline and follow Snout Track as far as dogs are allowed to go (all but the most precipitous section at the very northern end). But if you want a shorter walk, there are loops aplenty - though note that not all the tracks are open to dogs. |
