Illawarra Branch |
| Jenae J. |
 This is a beautiful walk taking in gorgeous bush around the Mt Keira area. The walk can be steep in sections so ideally some average fitness will assist - however we are going to be taking it very slow! This walk will be ideal for people a bit worried to take on a steep or group walk because of their fitness. We are going to take it very slow, stopping often and taking it very easy so we all enjoy the walk without fear of being too slow or too unfit. There is some minor rock hopping and stairs so you will need some basic mobility and flexibility. Mud, snakes, ladders, cliffs.

Undeniably Rocky Creek Canyon is one of the Blue Mountains most spectacular canyons with its superbly sculptured walls, spectacular views along the way and a walk out to remember!
Anyone coming on this trip must be able to swim as there is 3 short swims, the longest of which is about 50 metres. Also a wetsuit is mandatory as the water temperature is brisk to say the least. Some walkers may also prefer to bring a flotation device for the last and longest swim. Slippery rocks and cold water.
