Description

This walk is listed on www.walkingsa.org.au as ....

Waite Conservation Reserve & Brownhill Creek Walk

9.5km circuit, moderately difficult, undulating, duration 3-4hrs

Walking anticlockwise there is a steep (but short) climb up to the summit of Brown Hill. We can take several rests stops on the way up and debate the meaning of the word "short"and any substitute words. We will take the climb at an easy pace so that everyone can reach the summit in good humour to enjoy the lovely panoramic view.

The walk joins the Yurebilla Trail as it winds through a remnant of original grassy woodland in the Waite Conservation Reserve looping back to the start.

Please bring morning tea to have on the trail, water, appropriate weather clothing, good grip hiking boots and walking poles, if you use them.

This walk is for more experienced walkers and those that want to test their fitness.
