Conditions Change: Nature is unpredictable. The track conditions and weather mentioned in this post may have changed since ExploreABLE visited.
Personal Responsibility: You are responsible for your own safety and must assess your own fitness and skills before attempting the activity. Please consult with a doctor before undertaking any new physical activity to ensure it is safe for you.
Accuracy: While ExploreABLE strives for accuracy, errors can happen, and official sources (like National Parks websites) should always be checked for the latest alerts.
Terrain: Watch for the occasional dropped twigs or bark from the overhanging River Red Gums, and the transition from the flat concrete path onto the timber boardwalk of the viewing platform.
Wildlife: The primary wildlife challenges are swooping magpies during nesting season and the occasional presence of snakes or lizards soaking up sun on the warm concrete path near the riverbank.
ExploreABLE works offline once loaded – so your guide won’t disappear if the trail takes you out of reception. Just make sure you open and fully view your guide before you head off.
