31 May, Sat 8:00AM				The Lost City
Grade:4/6		Length	10km	200m	Sydney Branch
Mark G.
There’s a new track in town! The first section of the Lost City trail has been completed and I intend to walk its length and also explore various pagodas and other highlights off the main track as there’s always plenty to attract you’re attention in this type of landscape! The pace will be relaxed and intending participants should be good at rock scrambling and be prepared for some offtrack adventuring!

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

Rising high above the surrounding farmlands is an isolated ridge of pink and grey granite, the stunning, and in places rugged, Evans Crown nature reserve, where there are many outcrops certainly worth exploring and climbing for the magnificent views over the surrounding countryside. Also, at this time of the year the wattle is usually in full flower so the hills are covered in gold making walking in the area even more compelling! Who knows, maybe a dusting of snow is not impossible as the area does get the odd coverage now and again! rock scrambling Location: Evans Crown NR Map: Tarana 88301N Limit: 20. View
