Eight walkers (including two visitors) set off on what was confidently described as a “pleasant leg-stretcher” down to Chinaman’s Point along the access road. Spirits were high, knees were cooperative and the weather behaved itself.
On the banks of the Clyde River we stopped for morning tea, soaking in the serene views where a couple of brave souls enjoyed a paddle in the river, proving once again that bushwalkers will treat any body of water as a spa if given half a chance!
Energised, we retraced our steps, successfully tackling our first hills of the bushwalking season and sharp eyes along the track spotted our first snake. We were rewarded with magnificent views at Holmes Lookout and enjoyed the perfect setting for a relaxed and well-earned lunch.
