Let us make short bushwalking at Glenbrook of Blue Mountains in the morning and 采荠菜 at Penrith in the afternoon for this Sunday, June 20, 2010.

Walking track: Glenbrook – Euroka Clearing – Nepean River (return, 8 KM, 2-3 hours, easy)

Euroka is a great place to take overseas visitors for a picnic. As you’re almost guaranteed to see kangaroos. The site of an ancient volcanic vent formed at least 150 million years ago, these days Euroka is a small valley with fertile soil and grassy clearings. This track makes a circuit that starts and finishes at Euroka, visiting the Nepean River along the way.

For 采荠菜, see [聚会]那啥，荠菜上场了。。。。

We are going to walk “I THINK I CAN” at Glenbrook of Blue Mountain this Saturday August 7, 2010

I think I Can: A highlight of this walk is chance to get a close up view of the Knapsack Viaduct, completed in 1867. It was the most celebrated structure in the colony for many years. The viaduct carried the first trains crossing the Blue Mountains. The gradient was so steep that the trains needed to take the ascent in short sections. This was achieved by the engine pulling the load up to a switch point. The train as then switched to the rails parallel to the first leg on the next gradient. The engine then pushed the train up to the next level. This walk is along what remains of the old zigzag route as well as along a later cutting to a tunnel designed to by-passed the zigzag. A lookout over Glenbrook Gorge with the railway beneath our feet is following by a view into the Blue Mountains National Park to round off this history journey.

Meeting time and places

We are going to see Deer and bushwalk at Royal National Park this Sunday August 29 2010.

The Deer Stalker

This loop track of about 15 KM with “easy” grade will take 4-5 hours

The beauty of the forest encouraged park management to make a Forest Park Track in 1886 “to open up the park to the public.” Well done!

The walk explored an area, where deer can be seen. Early settlers, to provide more familiar animals than kangaroos, introduced deer. They are still here in limited numbers. Walkers need to be observant, as deer are shy. They are likely to be seen by the creek before reaching the rock pool or on the forest path after leaving Lady Carrington Track.

10:00 AM, Sunday 29th of August, at Car Park of Waterfall train station.
