Overview

Enjoy a day hike on the Cronan Creek Track

Join us for a beautiful 6.5km return walk along the scenic Cronan Creek Track, winding through lush rainforest, peaceful creek crossings and stunning natural surroundings.

Led by an experienced AW Tour Leader, this guided hike is a wonderful opportunity to explore the outdoors while sharing the experience with a group of like-minded women.

We'll set off early to enjoy cooler temperatures and avoid the crowds, following mostly gentle fire trails with easy gradients. Along the way, we'll take in the sights and sounds of the rainforest before stopping at a picturesque waterhole for lunch.

Bring your own lunch and, if the weather is warm, enjoy a refreshing swim before we begin our return journey.

While the walk is generally easy-going, there is a short steep section near the start that lasts approximately 500 metres. Expect a relaxed and enjoyable day outdoors, finishing around 2:00pm.

Fitness/Walk Grade

This is a Grade 3 hike, which is suitable for most fitness levels. The track does not feature any technical or bush-walking sections, however there is a short, steep incline at the start for approximately 500 metres.
