What people say
Beautiful spot. Great walk with many many stairs. Lots of tracks but not much signage or information about the tracks unfortunately. Parking was very expensive
The difficulty of the trail is up to the individual on how far you would like to go. The stairs are a beautiful leg work out and is not for the faint hearted.
Great little walk in Knapsack reserve, from Elizabeth Lookout. Some stairs going down towards the viaduct. You can do a loop or come back the same way.
Such a beautiful track. Plenty of different walking tracks connected to the carpark at Viaduct Trailhead. Our older kids Have done the walk with us and find the track nice and easy. Probably not for kids under 4-5.
