Check the National Park websites before planning any bushwalk please.

If you want to break up your journey to the mountains, stop at Glenbrook and take a walk to the Red Hands Cave. Head to the Jellybean pool. Follow the pool round to the right and you'll see a walking track for the Red Hands Cave: beautifully preserved Aboriginal rock art.
