| Summit Mother Browns Bonnet |
Some of this walk is in the Woodvine Nature Reserve except for the final section up to the summit. To reach the walk start drive out on the A9 to Forcett and turn into Delmore Road and then White Hill Road and follow this to the obvious old homestead. This used to be privately owned but was bequeathed to National Parks by the owner. The homestead area is interesting in itself with old buildings and machinery to look at.
I set off from the homestead on an old vehicle track which went for 2.5 kms. before I turned and started the ascent on another old track. The walking was easy and in no time I had reached the summit. The views were pretty limited, so I then walked down via a different route to the outward track and then back to the car.
A good short walk with limited views at the top but I found the homestead area quite interesting.
Distance: 7.5 kms.
Time: 2'09"
Ascent: 280 metres
