Steep climb up especially cause of the gin last night 😞 but interesting place to explore with great views and dark rock wallabies around.

Beautiful views! Great hike for a leg day workout as there's quite a number of steps leading up. The trail includes both marked and unmarked paths, and some rock climbing. Great spot to see some native animals too!

I enjoyed the bush walk and being surrounded by all the giant granite boulders at the top. Great views up there too. The steps were a challenge but I made it with a few rests. Young and fit people would have no problems. No facilities at all and no water.

Spectacular views, great and interesting rock formations. There is a well marked path to the top that branches off to, two directions for further Spectacular views of the surrounding region and scenery. I highly recommend not attempting the unmarked trails alone or if very inexperienced. It would be very easy to lose your sense of direction and get lost. So bring a friend. 😎 The two trails at the top of the steps are not currently maintained on my last visit and definitely need some work.
