Archived trip from old website run by joshbax189

What is a Tor? A huge rock. What are huge rocks good for? Scrambling!
We also get to visit the site of the old space tracking station and bash through some soothing Namadgi scrub.
What more could you want from a Sunday?

This is a short-ish day walk suitable for beginners who don't mind a bit of scrub bashing and scrambling.
The scrambling may be optional too ;)

Bring:
-walking shoes suitable for scrambling
-sunblock/sunhat
-whistle
-probably long sleeves/long pants or gaiters
-FOOD & WATER

Distance: 7km
Difficulty: Med
