Getting started
From the car park at the end of Water Supply Storage Road in Perisher Valley, this walk passes the 'Porcupine Track' sign and crosses Rock Creek using the metal bridge. The walk then turns right and follows the next 'Porcupine Track' sign towards the pump house. At the pump house, this walk follows the narrow track on the other side of the building and heads left, up past the reservoir. Soon the track bends right and heads up the hill through the open grassland following the line of snow poles. About 300m from the pump house, the track follows the first in a series of metal (erosion control) grates. About 650m after this, the walk crosses Rock Creek again on a flat timber bridge then, 60m later, comes to a signposted three-way intersection with Porcupine Link Track (on your left).....

Porcupine Rocks
The Porcupine Rocks are a large granite outcrop on the ridge, south of Perisher Valley. There are two main peaks, and a rock scramble leads to the top of the southern peak, providing fantastic views of Perisher Valley, Mt Duncan, Thredbo River Valley and Bullocks Flat. The gap between the two summits provides some shade and protection from the wind. An amazing place to visit - allow time to just relax and enjoy this place. The summit can be slippery and icy, and there is a shear drop and other hazards. Much care is required.
