Route

 

Description

This walk begins at the end of a rough dirt track that leads off Sulwood Drive just before Erindale Drive. From here we walked under the first of three underpasses - this time under Erindale Drive - and made our way up to the summit of Mt Wanniassa via management trails.


Descending down the other side we made our way towards the second of our underpasses - under Long Gully Lane. Paralleling Long Gully Lane on our left we headed through some denser bushland to the corner of Isaacs Nature Reserve and through another tunnel under Erindale Drive to Farrer Ridge Nature Reserve. We followed management trails and walking tracks back through the Reserve to our starting point.
