I set off through the farm and then into Wellington Park on the Collins Cap Trail. The track went uphill for a couple of kilometres and gained about 250 metres in height before levelling out somewhat.The vegetation around the Collins Cap area is really stuggling to recover from the fires a few years ago.

As always, this was a great walk and starting in Suhrs Road means a little less climbing to reach the top of the Collins Cap Trail as compared to starting at Myrtle Forest.

Looks like a great walk on a lovely day, Dennis. Love the pictures of the snow on the mountains.
ReplyDeleteYes Chris, a good walk and an excellent day, weather wise. Friends in Qld. can't believe that we still have snow whilst they are sweltering up north.
