Blackheath: hiking Evans Lookout – Grand Canyon
Tuesday 12th of July 2011
Hiking around Blackheath
Govetts Leap - Evans Lookout - Grand Canyon - Neates Glen - Govetts Leap - Waterfall and up again
I went up to the Govetts Leap parking lot, got myself some info and a topographical map of the area at the visitors information centre.
I started at the cliff top track to Evans Lookout and descended to the Grand Canyon back up to Neates Glen.
I did the Brea Side walk and back up to Govetts Leap again.
Following Rodriguez Pass to the bottom of the Govetts Leap Brook waterfall and back up again the dropping wet vertical cliff walls, awesome!
