Yea I’m reviewing a large hill, it’s happening 😂 Pros: - you can park close to the top (400m away) or further down depending on how far you want to walk/hike - the views are gorgeous -there are several chairs to rest on along the way - lots of cute spots to take a top of the bluff selfie Marked trail for the main parts of the hike - not a huge hike, can do it within an hr and that’s with some time stopping along the way to look at the views - you might see some cute fauna along the way - 360 degree views of victor harbour and the coast and all the islands! - mostly quiet and you’ll Probably have it to yourself Cons: - steep - once you hit the unmarked trail areas it is mixed terrain, lots of dirt and rocks so can be slippery or feel a bit treacherous going down if you’re not super sure footed. - not a lot of shade, wear sunscreen or a hat - going down will likely take longer, again, the path isn’t marked and there are slippery rocks and various steep bits so tread carefully, plus the rain will change the walkways as it etches its way through the dirt during bad weather Overall a lovely walk, even though it’s steep and it was very hot today, would recommend! Even if just for those views!

10 mins hike from carpark. Steep and appropriate shoes with good grip recommended. There is one easy path to go down, keep an eye on it. Beautiful view, must visit.

It was a quick but beautiful walk. Unfortunately, some of the paths had faded but, I found my way to the top. I saw a shingleback lizard on my way down back down!

Pros:

you can park close to the top (400m away) or further down depending on how far you want to walk/hike the views are gorgeous -there are several chairs to rest on along the way lots of cute spots to take a top of the bluff selfie Marked trail for the main parts of the hike not a huge hike, can do it within an hr and that’s with some time stopping along the way to look at the views you might see some cute fauna along the way 360 degree views of victor harbour and the coast and all the islands! mostly quiet and you’ll Probably have it to yourself

Cons:

steep once you hit the unmarked trail areas it is mixed terrain, lots of dirt and rocks so can be slippery or feel a bit treacherous going down if you’re not super sure footed. not a lot of shade, wear sunscreen or a hat going down will likely take longer, again, the path isn’t marked and there are slippery rocks and various steep bits so tread carefully, plus the rain will change the walkways as it etches its way through the dirt during bad weather
