Good hike here. Was about 5 to 6 kilometres from the Purau Saddle carpark. Took about 1.5 hours to reach it. Had to be careful around cattle on the way as they could be u ... more

Such a nice area, it's a shame it was spoilt by the inhospitable and capricious nature of the guy who runs it.

Nice place to stretch your legs, grab a coffee and take in the lake

I absolutely enjoyed this trail! Will most definitely go back and hopefully the track will be dry.

A much better (and slightly tougher) walk than I thought. Well worth it. Will do again for sure.

A narrow windy road down to the small car park followed by a 5 min walk down to this stunning beach. Great spot to visit, surrounded farmland and huge cliff faces next to ... more

Fab walk and freedom camping spot

straight up slog to the top, steep & gravelly. No shade so bring plenty of water & sunscreen in summer. Awesome views of Lakes Camp, Clearwater & Emily. Well worth it.
