    This is a quick and easy walk you can do at night to see glowworms up close. About halfway along the path there is an overturned tree stump on the right with a small colony of glowworms. Great for kids.

    After 7 minutes this really boring forest path suddenly ends in a barrier. Unfortunately there was no water in the river.

    You have to climb offer some dead trees but it's not to hard and a nice short walk. Right know you can also have a look at the destroyed bridge from the end point of the walk.

    After the little waterfall you can go to the right hand side in the bush and follow the path maps. Me shows for this walk, but it’s not a real way. You can look in the creek from the end of the path

    Beautiful little walk on generally easy gradient. Track well maintained. As a "terrace walk" it does only go in then return along the same track --- but you do get a wonderful second prospectus. Lovely little waterfall at end. Came back a second time after local rain and it had increased.
