D'Aguilar National Park Mt Mee Section


                       Army tank outside Woodford Information Centre

First stop was Woodford information centre ,was staffed by 2 really friendly and helpful volunteers who gave us loads of great information.
Drove to Bellthorpe State Forest to the Stony Creek Swimming Hole. Would be a great place to visit in summer and swim.

                                                   Stony Creek


Then back thru Woodford to the Mt Mee section of D'Aguilar National Park.
Had lunch in the Gantry Picnic Area, so called because of the remains of a gantry shed from earlier days when this area was milled for the timber.
Had 2 Kookaburras and 3 Magpies watch every mouthful we ate then did the Piccabeen Walk which winds thru the forest.

                          Our lunch guests and the Gantry Shed

In the car and onto Falls lookout and Bull Falls just a short walk where you look down on a small waterfall. There were a group of rangers doing maintenance on the lookout platform so had a nice little chat before back in the car to Neuraun Creek Drive and Mill Rainforest Walk this was a nice meander thru forest and creek.


                                   Some Fungi just because

Back in the car and onto Rocky Hole this would also be a great place to visit in summer to swim.

Them home via Delaney Creek. Was a lovely day even though get got a little worried on the way out that we may have taken the wrong road but as usual we were just too anxious.
