Grade:3/6		Length	7km	250m	Sydney Branch

The Bob Turners track is probably the easiest route down to the mighty Colo River and where it meets this superb watercourse is an enormous pool which is perfect for a swim on a hot Summers day. But wait theres more! Bring along you're flotation device such as a surfmat or donut and we will float down the river, shoot the odd cascade before we return and eventually climb back up the way we came. A wonderful way to spend an Australia Day weekend. rock hopping Location: Wollemi NP Map: Colo Heights 90313N Limit: 12. View
