3 Apr, Fri 8:00AM				Birds Rock to Hippo Rock pagodas and Carne creek lookout
Grade:3/6		Length	16km	200m	Sydney Branch
Mark G.
The Broad Swamp to Birds Rock walking trail is a 17km new track which is part of the 30km Gardens of Stone SCA walking trail, which is due to be finished before the end of this decade. I was planning on doing this section one way but unfortunately the Broad Swamp section with the carpark is closed until just after Easter, whilst new facilities are being established. So instead I'm doing the more spectacular section of this trail starting from Birds Rock and including Hippo rock and the stunning Carne creek lookout and nearby pagodas. Basically we will experience the best section of this track so you won't be disappointed. However, if there is a miracle and the infrastructure is finished by Easter, then the original plan of walking from Broad Swamp to Birds Rock will still stand. But I doubt it!

4 Apr, Sat 8:00AM				Tramway trail~The Towers~Blacks Corner and return
Grade:4/6		Length	15km	300m	Sydney Branch
Mark G.
A walk with history and lots of pagodas and stunning views! We start our hike along the Tramway trail, passing various old miners dwellings now being overtaken by nature and head west until the trail ends and we then follow the ridge along to Blacks Corner. Sounds deceptively simple but along the way we will encounter more pagodas and slots than you can imagine as well as some almost parkland sections of grassy lomandra until we reach our objective, Blacks Corner. A walk for those who want to leave the Easter crowds behind and explore a location rarely visited. rock scrambling and offtrack walking Location: Mugii Murum-ban SCA Map: Glen Alice 89314N Limit: 12.

5 Apr, Sun 8:00AM				Wheeny Gap and waterfalls
Grade:4/6		Length	15km	380m	Sydney Branch
Mark G.
What this walk lacks in distance it more than makes up for in terms of variety and pure enjoyment as there is much to see and savour in this not often visited part of Wollemi national park. Along the way you'll encounter some of the best and largest swimming holes you could hope to find, gorgeous waterfalls and cascades and stands of towering trees in a rainforest environment. Add to these features, some extraordinary tafoni enriched sandstone caves, rock wells to play in and a hellva lot more. All in all, an adventurers playground par excellence! rock scrambling and offtrack walking Location: Wollemi NP Map: Mountain Lagoon 90313S Limit: 12. View

11 Apr, Sat 8:00AM				Upper Govetts Leap creek wanderings
Grade:5/6		Length	10km	200m	Sydney Branch
Mark G.
This walk takes in a lot of wild country in the upper reaches of Govetts Leap Creek and a short section of Katoomba Creek and involves a fair bit of creek walking and offtrack walking along with some tracks thrown in for good measure! All in all you can expect a lot of variety and almost certainly few people! So if you are in the mood for a walk not listed in any guide book then this is for you! In other words...adventurous types welcome. offtrack and rock scrambling Location: Blue Mountains National Park Map: Katoomba 1:25 000 Limit: 12. View
