Bushwalk to Kariong Glyphs and Spion Kop. Return distance approximately 13km (4 - 4.5 hours)

This is a moderate (grade 3) walk on fire trails and a slightly overgrown rough but clear bush track and requires a moderate level of fitness. 


The walk commences on Bambara Road (fire trail) and we make our way gently downhill to the Hieroglyphic trail. It is a short walk along this flat trail to "The Glyphs". We will spend about 15 to 20 minutes here taking in this puzzling site. From there we will return to Bambara Road via Currumbine Creek Trail and walk downhill on gravel road to the start of the Spion Kop Track. This track follows a lovely open creek for a few hundred meters before climing up onto the side of a ridge that takes us out to the Kop. This section of the walk is slightely overgrown and there are a couple of spots that require a little rock scrambling. However the rewards are an abundance of wildflowers, interesting rock formations and specturacular views from Dragon Head Rock.


What to bring: comfortable, sturdy walking shoes, sun protection, insect repellant, plenty of water, morning tea and lunch, personal first aid kit, smiles and lots of chat. 

This bushwalk is not wheelchair accessible. 

Please contact the event organiser with any accessibility requests as early as possible so that suitable arrangements can be discussed and organised where possible.
