Post date: Oct 14, 2015 7:2:13 PM

Day 1: Birrabang Canyon, Upper Grose Valley, BMNP, (M/M) A great introductory canyon with no abseils required – no swims with scrambling you need only get wet to the top of your legs. A nice canyon and a spectacular gorge.

Days 2 & 3: Splendour Rock, BMNP (M/M 28km & 1000m climb) Starting in Megalong Valley (Dunphy’s carpark) we’ll walk via fire trail to Mobb Swamp track, ascend to Warrigal Gap & camp overnight at Splendour Rock to enjoy magnificent views of Kanangra Walls and the Wild Dog Mountains.

Day 4: Goochs Crater, Upper Wollangambe River, BMNP (S/E) Spend a half day exploring the crater’s pagodas, caves, and wildflowers. Track and scramble, with mild exposure
