3119 Blackberry Flat
Weekend 20th -21st April 2024
This will be a tenting trip, camping on Saturday night at Blackberry Flat on the Gorge Track. We will begin our walk at Speedies Road end and finish at Were Road. Essentially the track follows the Tawarau River, beginning with an undulating climb through a farm landscape, then into the bush. This is limestone country, so there are interesting cliffs, rock formations, mini-chasms and spring water flowing out of rocks next to the track. After a leisurely 3-hour walk to the campsite, we will set up camp. There is the option of extending the day by walking to Double Falls (3 hours return), or you could stay and relax at the campsite beside the stony beach and explore. Swimming opportunities are abundant for those who are keen. Sunday is approximately a 3 hour walk out through the forest to the farm and road end of Were road.
