Grade:6/6 Length 30km Sydney Branch

Camp | An activity that involves an overnight stay, usually in a tent.Walk | A bushwalk of any kind short or longA 4-day pack walk. Park at Benjang Gap, walk up Lee Creek till Lost Chord Ravine, GR 327 904, about 5 km, and establish a camp. We will stay at this camp for two nights and do two day-walks in this very complex and spectacular area. This part is partly exploratory. It is fully exploratory from here on. On Day 3, we will strike the camp and find a way up through the cliffs to the north west and to the pagoda-studded tops. After establishing a camp at around GR 335 910, we will explore the ravine to the north with day packs only. The aim will be also to find water. On Day 4, we will traverse the Tal Tal Range northwards till GR 321 930 or GR 310 941, where I expect to find passes back down to Lee Creek and the vehicles. About 30 km. Mostly exploratory. Scrambling and exposure.

Camp | An activity that involves an overnight stay, usually in a tent.Walk | A bushwalk of any kind short or long(Fully Booked - Ask leader about waiting list) Perhaps the best bit of wilderness coast in NSW and we walk along it from Boyd Tower to Green Cape and return. A mixture of pack walking and day walking. Lovely campsites along the coast for 4 nights. Heath country with wildflowers, whales, and maybe a ground parrot. No hills of any consequence and short days make the walk a real delight.
