Sawn Rocks Walking Track

Starting from Sawn Rocks parking and picnic area this short return walk in Mount Kaputar National Park takes you along a shady track to the magnificent organ-pipe cliff face. Let us begin by acknowledging the Kamilaroi people, Traditional Custodians of the land on which we travel today, and pay our respects to their Elders past and present.
