The walk is a short return circuit that passes Ferntree and via a short detour Cascade Falls, and gives many excellent viewing points over the fern-lined upper reaches of the Middle Creek below.

Ferntree Picnic area includes a series of small campsites and a large picnic area with a Hut and toilets.

A flat start to the walk turns just before Ferntree falls, crossing Middle Creek and climbing several small groups of stairs. The track once again flattens out as you cross Middle Creek again before decending towards the campground. A short detour to view cascade falls (100mtrs – 10mins) can be taken before descending towards the camp ground.

This walk starts near Chinamans Campground and takes a short but very steep track to the summit of Ben Nevis with some great views looking to the West .
The track is reasonably clear to follow and well marked, although the start is a little overgrown and the final rocky climb to the summit is unclear between markers.

From the campground head South along the Rd to the signposted walk start (-37.249462,143.196902). The track heads West over the small creek initially easy going but very overgrown and soon climbs very steeply for roughly 1 km until Cowan Track (-37.242066,143.188407). The next 1.5 km follows Cowan track and Sugarloaf track before turning off towards Ben Nevis (-37.235393,143.194186).  From here the track flattens a little and crosses Red Rock Track bofore the final rocky climb of 300 mtrs to the summit. Heading north from the tower gives the best view to the West.

A short detour when crossing Red Rock Track  (-37.232053,143.196144) to the popular hangliding spot and lookout (-37.229941,143.194794) also gives a clear view to the West.

Toilets, Shelter and tank water is available at both the start and finish.

Return via the same route or you could car shuffle as the summit is accessible via 2wd.

This walk involves many steep staircases, rock steps and a well worn path.
From the rear of the Halls Gap Caravan Park (Agnes’ Grave) follow the walking track to the base of a large staircase.
A steep climb via many staircases with some good views over Halls Gap and the surrounding ranges. The track then winds its way up through rocky outcrops before arriving at the Pinnacle Lookout. Return via the same route or as an alternative option the track continues on to Wonderland Car park, Sundial Car park or Lake Bellfield.

Track beyond Mt William summit closed due to flood damage

This can be done as a day walk but depending on weather conditions, available light and personal fitness an overnight stop is recomended.
From the Carpark follow the sealed road beyond the gate towards the summit of Mt William (Duwul). Before the summit, follow an old management vehicle track along the top of the range, the track narrows and descends to Boundary Gap (Dirag).
Here is a small bush camp and the intersection of the track leading to kalymna falls.
A steep climb shortly after and a rock scramble upwards brings you onto the Major Mitchell Plateau, and the First Wannon Hiker Campsite is reached shortly after.
This is recommended as an overnight stop as it has several small camp sites a flowing creek and a single toilet.
The track continues beyond the First Wannon Hiker Campsite along the Major Mitchell Plateau. Keep watch for the track markers along the less conspicuous sections of the track. The track leaves the Major Mitchell Plateau and descends steeply to Stockyard Saddle, continue along a Management Vehicle Track that leads to a helipad. From the helipad, the walking track gradually winds downhill to the Jimmy Creek Campground.

The Pyrenees Endurance Walk is 18 km one way and is recommended as an overnight trip starting at the Waterfalls Picnic area with Camerons Track being the halfway point. The trail is well marked with orange markers on posts and there is water at Camerons Camp.

GPS track coming soon
