Combined Central Coast & Newcastle Shoot – Saturday, 23rd November with Terina Vale & Ron Bonham

November 23 @ 7:00 am - 8:30 am

Location Information

Location features: Explore the 600 metre loop walk at the Boarding House Dam in The Watagans. Several small waterfalls in a rain forrest like location with moss covered rotting trees, the famous Green Wall and other attractive photo opportunities.
At present, the loop walk is the greenest I have seen in the last decade.

The road into the Boarding House Dam is 2WD accessible, however there are corrugations and a few deep potholes to be navigated.

As some areas are small, it is suggested that people break up into groups of 3-4 people and move around the Loop Walk and return afterwards.

Hazards/Dangers: The loop walk is a narrow and uneven pathway, some sections can be slippery due the constant moisture.

Fitness requirements: The walk is moderate in difficulty, however if you wish to explore some of the boulder strewn sections along the creek, it is much more difficult.

Additional safety equipment required: Rock shoes with spikes are essential. As we will be there in daylight, no lightning equipment is needed.
