Description

A short walk along Weeping Rock walking track in New England National Park will take you to a basalt cliff with natural springs above and covered in moss and ferns. Distance: 2km return Time suggested: 30min - 1hr During winter, this spectacular rock face is covered in a sheet of ice and individual rivulets of water are transformed into icicles. When its not quite so cold, listen for the long, creaking growls of the rare sphagnum frog that lives in cracks in the rock face or burrows into the moss. Its only a 950m walk to Weeping Rock and back with pockets of both steep and uneven ground. Kids in particular love this walk caves, fascinating trees, rocks to scramble over and water make it the perfect combination for a fun day out. Pets are not permitted. No camping or overnight parking.
