  • Co-leader: Kevin Cliffe. In 2015, I saw thousands of waratahs. It's because it was after a bushfire. We had bushfires again this year. So hopefully, we'll see many waratahs. No guarantee though. After the waratahs patches, we'll proceed to a Trig Station and Bungleboorie Lookout. Fantastic view of pagodas.Video of Martins Lookout to Lost World. Lost World Video of Tahmoor Gorge Mermaid Pools  View Esther's future walks
