Walk | A bushwalk of any kind short or longPublic Transport | There are public transport options to and from this activity.We initially visit the historical Lady Martin's Bath at Linden before making our way along the Sassafras Ridge Fire trail for about 2.5 km. After branching off the fire trail and visiting an Aboriginal engraving site, we then follow a faint footpad and end up in the rainforest beside Sassafras Creek. The creek is followed on the well-known Victory Track before we branch off onto Magdala Gully Track and follow it back to Springwood Shops. The walk will not be a race, but besides the normal stops for items of interest, morning tea and lunch, we will have to keep moving because of the distance to be covered.   Hazards: Trip hazards, sun exposure, possible wet feet.
Location: Blue Mountains National Park Limit:12.
