(Fully Booked) The last of the special trips to Lord Howe Island started during the pandemic. A visit to this World Heritage site is on many people's to-do list. In this trip we not only walk the many beautiful tracks, but also learn from the local experts why the island is so special in the stories of evolution and conservation. You may also encounter one of the most unique birds which was the reason of David Attenborough's 1997 visit. The trip package includes flights, accommodation, restaurant meals, lectures, guided walks, low tide reef walks and night walks. You can also enjoy your own walks, snorkelling, golfing, etc.. Club insurance does not apply to this commercial trip.

Grade:5/6	Length	10km		Sydney Branch
Yuri B.
Find out why this part of the Gardens of Stone must be better protected for the future generations. Park the vehicles at around GR 306 175 on the branch road off the Bicentennial National Trail. Follow the Great Dividing Range north to Gordian Knot and then to Witches Watch, a spectacular lookout above Hecates Cauldron. From here, descend into the Cauldron and explore it underneath the cliff lines and also above, amidst “the bubbles”. Visit the Tower of Hope and other features. Descend into the headwaters of Baal Bone Creek, cross the valley and climb up through Tara Slot onto Tara Point. More amazing views. From here, move up to the ridge and re-connect with the vehicles. Scrambling and exposure. About 10 km. Location: Ben Bullen SF Map: Ben Bullen 89314S and Cullen Bullen 89313N View

A scenic to the gems of La Perouse, bays and beaches, parks and landmarks. Also a short walk through national park. Mostly on off road cycle paths, short distance on road with wide shoulder. Bring lock, spare tubes and walking shoes. Unfortunately, riding an e-bike on this trip will mean that you are not covered under NPA club insurance; Bushwalking Australia is working to see if it can be covered for future trips. Limit: 10. View
