Very Good |
| A good packaged trek traversing over challenging terrain in the Heavitree Ranges. This walk includes lots of valley walking, steep mountain treks and great views which eventually meander into open and easy going and undulating terrain as you leave Ormiston Gorge. The last effort of the walk will be Mount Sonder, which will reward you with spectacular 360 views of the area. |
