Reply To: Wungong Valley

I was at Wungong on the weekend and wanted to clarify a few things about the way there… The Regional Park sign is no longer green, it’s been replaced with an orange sign. Where Anne says it diverts right is a Y fork (I assume that’s the place). It looks like the left fork is relatively recent.

Oh and so no one makes the mistake, there is a sort of big culvert which could be mistaken for a bridge about 5 minutes before the actual bridge. It’s just there to stop the run off washing out the track, I think. Not only that but it’s dry, the real bridge usually has water under it.

Umm, the track to the left 100m after the bridge is the first left and it’s only about 25m from the bridge. And don’t climb up the side of the cairn. The ‘hidden’ track is pretty much immediately after crossing the brook. Climb over the rock to the right and follow the “path” down into the reeds along the brook for a few metres and it will then curve up and left and bring you to the base of the rock chute. It does require a bit of bush bashing. And be careful of the spikey bush, OOWWW!

Hope this helps.
