Route
Description
We started this walk from the Kambah Pool carpark and found the track leading off to the north off Kambah Pool road. The track is very clear and even has distance markers. It starts by heading down into a gully which has to be climbed out again on the other side. before the next gully we changed direction and climbed cross-country to the peak of Forster Hill to take in the view. Coming down Forster Hill on the other side of the gully, we reacquired the walking track and continued on until we had travelled about 5 kilometres. At this point, as our time was limited and I was struggling a bit in the heat, we headed back towards Kambah Pool without getting quite as far as we had intended, following the walking track the entire way back. Just off the track at one point is a rocky outcrop to the west which offers some views over the Murrumbidgee River.
