Thank you to the bushwalkers who braved a rainy forecast to join me at Central Tilba for the Bellbrook Farm Loop Walk followed by lunch.

We did get some misty rain for about 5 minutes, but otherwise it was all good. This is a lovely 3.5 km stroll around a gully behind The Dromedary Pub. The walk has recently been renamed Bungarri-yana (hill-walk) and is now part of Gulaga National Park. Starting with a steep descent down 2 flights of wooden steps which take you through a stand of Moreton Bay Figs, you come to the grassy loop track. Anticlockwise is the least steep option and enjoys wonderful views of green rolling farmlands punctuated by granite outcrops, the forested slopes of Gulaga Mountain and the dramatic small rocky peak of Najanuga.

We had a morning tea break at the strategically placed picnic table about halfway around before continuing down the hill to a bridge across the creek and up to the end of the loop. Then it was a steep climb back up the wooden flights of stairs. Some of us also took the time to climb even higher over a granite outcrop to the town reservoir perched on the highest point overlooking the walk.

Unfortunately the Dromedary Pub was fully booked by a bus tour, so we drove the 15 minutes back to Narooma and sat down to lunch at the Narooma Golf Club.
