Walking notes

This walk offers a lovely mix of native bush, expansive views and open grazing country. The Track follows single track through the bush for the 430m descent off Munderoo Plateau. It then peters out through the grazing lands but there are marker posts dotted through the paddocks to follow. It is a nice walk along Lankey’s Creek. This walk is located within the Mundaroo State Forest.

How to access the track

Carboona Gap / In Mundaroo Forest, turn left onto Blue Hills Road, left onto Burns Road, then right onto Hardys Road. Follow Hardys Road nearly to the end of the pine plantation on your right until you reach a stile over a new fence separating the pine forest from private property - the Hume and Hovell log book is on the left

Lankey's Creek Campsite / is accessed via a sharp, slightly hidden, right hand turn off Jingellic Road, 8.7kms from the turn off from Tumbarumba/Jingellic Road turnoff. It is marked by a Hume and Hovell marker post. There is a little spot to park a vehicle and the campsite is over the fence and a short walk down to the creek.
